The Orange Door team members are an integrated, collaborative team from The Sexual Assault & Family Violence Centre, Bethany Community Support, Colac Area Health and Wathaurong Aboriginal Cooperative. The Government has recently identified the need for additional resourcing within The Orange Door and therefore has provided additional funding for multiple positions.
