Community Recovery - Lifeline Women's support service

Services

Website has contacts and information about support and useful contacts following a natural disaster. For those affected by disasters or events, Lifeline's Community Recovery Program provides support, assessments and referrals; immediate psychosocial and ongoing counselling and support to individuals and communities; and financial counselling including referrals for business. The program aims to make an immediate impact on the trauma and stress experienced by communities through counselling interventions, as well as spearheading longer term recovery through a coordinated approach to rebuilding or re-establishing key community networks and support structures. The Community Recovery team is activated at the request of state or local government authorities, or local community leaders in the event of a disaster or critical incident. Some support can continue for years after a critical incident. Community Recovery Officers have referred those affected to the Crisis Line, and other counselling and support services
