25.01.2022 2nd and Final Day lat the Aboriginal Lead CFC forum at Godinymanyin Yijard Rivers Arts and Culture Centre Today.

25.01.2022 A fantastic meeting with the Northern Territory Police, Fire and Emergency Services today in regards to the success Kalano Youth Diversion is having in not only supporting offenders through and to completion of the Diversion system but also linking with the Child and Family Centre to ensure these youth are kept out of the justice system in the years that follow

24.01.2022 MASSIVE WELL DONE to Mikky who recently completed her Diploma in Community Services. Sadly Venndale loses this wonderful lady soon due to her family relocating but we know who ever is lucky to pick her up will be better off for having her on their team :)

23.01.2022 Thamasin and Tammy from NTLAC visited Venndale today to have an information session with the staff regarding Health Justice Project and discussed how to refer clients to Legal Aid using legal health checks

22.01.2022 Team Work makes the Dream Work. All of Venndale pitching in today for the Life Skills program. Spring Cleaning may sound boring but its a great skill to teach in order to promote the need to do it every so often for the benefit of your families. It also helps when renting etc.

22.01.2022 Thanks to Marcus from Catholic Care and the No More Campaign at Venndale today

20.01.2022 Was great for the team to have team one on one time with the CEO today. Kalanos open door policy and ease of access from any level really enforces a cohesive working team

20.01.2022 Venndale Clients were shown how to create vision boards today to help with their treatment goals setting

19.01.2022 Please meet Kalano’s New Team Leader for NDIS in Tennant Creek Ema is a proud Torres Strait woman, originally from Murray Island. Ema has been in Tennant Creek with her family for two years. If you are in Tennant Creek and need help with NDIS please don’t hesitate to call 89186151

19.01.2022 Venndale Rehabilitation Centres round up of some of the sessions last week. Venndales program is designed based on what clients ask us for. Alcohol and Drugs is only one part of program. As you can see last week we delved in to areas such as Literacy and Numeracy, Life Skills, Time Management and Stakeholder Awareness.

18.01.2022 Work is Underway, well and truly on the bitumen project. We cant wait for no more dust! :)

13.01.2022 Thanks to the NTG Nutritionalist for coming out to run her regular session on healthy eating

12.01.2022 Great to see STEPS back at Venndale this week delivering the Literacy and Numeracy program FULL TIME. At Kalano we believe that post treatment is just as important as the treatment itself. Employment is a major contributor to relapse prevention and literacy and numeracy skills are a barrier to employment. This is why Venndale doesnt just focus on health related topics.

12.01.2022 Was great to have these strong Aboriginal Women supporting us to interview for a number of new Jobs at Kalano today. thanks Fiona and Reasha

11.01.2022 Healthy Cooking Classes at Venndale today were well received by the clients. When you replace alcohol with food there is a tendency to gain weight so its important to ensure the food you eat is the right food.
