Bunjilwarra

Bunjilwarra is a 12 bed residential rehabilitation and healing service for Aboriginal young people (male and female) aged between 16 and 25 years. It is a purpose built, statewide service situated on a 1.7 hectare site in Hastings, Victoria.
Bunjilwarra provides:
A holistic journey of healing, embracing Aboriginal culture.
A culturally and clinically safe residential rehabilitation program in the form of a therapeutic community for Aboriginal young people who require treatment to manage their alcohol and drug use problems, and to build resilience. A stable and secure environment where young people work on managing problematic behaviours, improving their life skills and interpersonal skills, learning alternative habits to develop personal resilience and confidence, build social networks and reintegrate into the community. An effective, clinical alcohol and drug recovery orientated program that is staffed 24/7 by a strong clinical team.
Improved social and emotional support.
Bunjilwarra's Vision, Purpose and Aim
Vision: Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander young people are well because they are connected to where they come from, to their families, communities, and their identities.
Purpose: To create a culturally safe rite of passage experience for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander young people to change, transform, and grow.
Aim: To provide pathways to healing for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander young people by using cultural healing practices that are supported by trauma-informed care and informed by the Social Emotional Wellbeing framework .

Bunjilwarra operates under the following principles:
• Aboriginal Culture is imbedded in all aspects of Bunjilwarra including the service management, the service model and all programs.
• Healing - a focus on improving the physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of the young person, in the context of their family and the Aboriginal Community.
• Respect - which require staff and residents to have respect for themselves and respect for others.
• Person centred and recovery oriented practice places the needs of the young person at the centre, whilst recognising the importance of the family and Aboriginal community to their healing and recovery.
• Clinical Effectiveness through a strong clinical program that will bring about change in a person’s approach to AOD issues, address underlying trauma, and tackle broader health and wellbeing needs. • Family Inclusion with family members supported, informed and engaged in planning, treatment and recovery for the young person, wherever possible and appropriate.
• Harm Reduction within Australian government principles to ensure safety and harm minimisation.
• Youth focused/friendly which caters for the specific needs of Aboriginal young people, including young parents and young people with a physical and/or intellectual disability, mental illness, and involvement with the justice system.
• Social and Emotional Wellbeing, combining alcohol and drug treatment, therapeutic practices, trauma informed practices, and Aboriginal spirituality and healing.
• Integration and Coordination with appropriate support services through established links with other relevant services and specialists.
• Continuum of Care recognising that Bunjilwarra is only one part of the young person’s treatment and recovery journey which builds on past treatment and provides for ongoing care post discharge.
• Evidence Based - utilises best practice evidence from both VAHS and YSAS and other relevant services or peak bodies.
Bunjilwarra acknowledges that healing is a journey of return to physical, emotional, spiritual and cultural wellbeing; one that will occur over an extended period of time far beyond the time a young person will spend at Bunjilwarra. The service also recognises that many Aboriginal young people will have a tenuous relationship with culture, that (re)connection to culture must be self-paced and that it requires diverse opportunities alongside and in the context of activities focused on education, employment, sport, art, recreation and wellbeing. Bunjilwarra shares the Healing Foundation’s view that healing is a process that respectfully turns hurt from the past into something positive for individuals, for community and for future generations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Healing recognises the strengths of Aboriginal young people and the assets of Aboriginal culture and community including resilience in the face of extreme adversity, strong kinship systems and connection to spiritual traditions, ancestry, country and community.
