The service currently receives $100,000 annually from the state and commonwealth governments, which does not cover one full-time wage, Green says. Green said a new client accesses the service each week, but without stable funding the centre may be forced to close the program. Robinson said the centre’s funding will run out in 2025 and if not renewed it would lose two case workers and a solicitor and would have to decrease services.
