Moogji Aboriginal Council in Orbost is in the process of redeveloping its medical centre facility on Stanley Street, allowing it to expand the health services and cultural programs it provides for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
“The community is growing – we have more demand for services than we can always accommodate. As the community grows, it’s clear that we need to grow with it, “ interim Moogji chief executive officer, Christofer Beal, said recently.
Work on the Stanley Street site is now underway and is expected to be completed by the middle of next year.
