Changed services at MHACA due to Storm Damage

Our premises have suffered damage from the storms that hit Alice Springs on Friday 17th June 2016. MHACA continues to offer limited services as a result.

From Wednesday 29th June MHACA will open its Day to Day Living activities and Drop In Centre at its premises from 9am to 2pm Monday to Friday.

Our Support Workers are available to existing participants and can be contacted directly on their mobiles or via our landline.

Whilst our premises remain partially closed to the community, we can be contacted on 08 8950 4600.

However, if you have an emergency, we encourage you to contact the Emergency Department at the Alice Springs Hospital or call Lifeline on 13 11 14 or NT Health Direct on 1800 186 026 if you need any assistance.

We apologise for the inconvenience and will update this message regularly.

From the MHACA Team.
