About the organisation
Ngaimpe Aboriginal Corporation operates The Glen, the only indigenous drug and alcohol rehabilitation servicing the Central Coast and wider NSW. The Glen’s award-winning program are designed to treat a client in a holistic manner. This means treating the person as a whole (spiritually, mentally, culturally and physically). It also means trying to not just treat their addiction but the things that may be causing the addictive behaviours.
After clients complete the 12-week residential program, they have an opportunity to apply for our transition program. The transition program supports clients back into the community, such as helping them find employment and / or learn a new skill.
