About us

Windana provides holistic, evidence-based services for people experiencing challenges with alcohol and other drugs, family violence, mental health concerns and social disadvantage.

On Monday 20 November 2023, TaskForce Community Agency became part of Windana. Our combined service offering across Victoria includes:

  • A suite of alcohol and other drug services, including residential and non-residential withdrawal services, residential rehabilitation, and community-based programs.

  • Youth and family services, including family violence programs.

  • Education, engagement, and employment support.

We work across sectors to improve and refine treatment services, increase community understanding and reduce stigma, advocate for positive change, and offer non-judgemental care and services across every client’s journey.

Our Mission

Helping people to rebuild their lives.

Artful Balance Exhibition

This online exhibition features art created in our Community Studio Art Therapy groups - where people at different stages of their journey with alcohol and other drugs are enabled to use art to express, explore, discover, have fun, relax and connect with peers. Learn more about the healing power of art in our Art Therapist’s exhibition welcome.

For 24-hour alcohol/drug support and referrals to services (including to Windana), you can call DirectLine on 1800 888 236 or visit www.directline.org.au.
