Sir David Martin Foundation is the major philanthropic funder of Mission Australia’s Triple Care Farm, a unique addiction treatment centre which gives vulnerable young Australians, aged 16-24, a safe place to get well and prepare for new opportunities.

The majority of young people seeking help at Triple Care Farm have underlying mental illness and/or trauma which is often masked by drug and alcohol addiction.

Triple Care Farm offers best-practice rehabilitation programs, including:

  • 24-hour medical withdrawal management provided in a health accredited clinical setting. Then the young person’s needs are addressed through psychosocial treatment, individual and group counselling with on-site access to a GP and an Addiction specialist.
  • Residential Rehabilitation that includes vocational training and education, living skills and a sport and recreation stream. This holistic, innovative and evidence-based model allows young people to set their individual goals and build positive relationships and networks.
  • Aftercare provides the vital wrap-around support necessary for young people when they return to the community. Here they maintain their goals to re-engage with education and employment, maintain healthy relationships and look after their own health and wellbeing.
