The Orange Door

Home > Our Services > Family Violence > The Orange Door

The Orange Door is a network of services that supports Community members experiencing family violence or child-wellbeing problems. There are many Orange Doors across the state open to all Victorians. VACCA provides the option of a culturally safe response. 

Who is it for? 

  • For all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women, children and men. 

How it works 

  • The Orange Door has a policy of ‘no wrong door’, which means there’s open access from all over Victoria. Here’s the list of all The Orange Doors.
  • Aboriginal people have the option of seeing an Aboriginal worker. 
  • An initial assessment and safety plan is completed to see what level of support is needed. If the need is urgent, immediate interventions can be provided to ensure safety and wellbeing of everyone involved 
  • Some of the ways The Orange Door can help include: 
    • counselling 
    • parental support 
    • services for children 
    • education 
    • accommodation and housing 
    • mental health support 
    • alcohol and drug services 
    • financial and legal help 
  • Once we know exactly what’s needed, we can find the right services and help to handle the situation.  
  • The Orange Door will continue its work until the person is connected in with ongoing longer-term support.
