About Us

Since 1973, our organisation has provided specialist support for people in serious need in Victoria. Our core services focus on addressing social issues of addiction, unemployment, mental health and high risk taking behaviours, supporting our clients to transition back into "mainstream" services and supports. The people who access our services have experienced significant disadvantage or a crisis in their lives and as a result are prevented from reaching their potential. Many have fallen through society's cracks and all too often have been placed in the "too hard" basket. They are people who have a long term range of complex issues or a single issue with a high degree of severity.

As an RTO and ACFE Provider, TaskForce delivers pre-accredited and accredited courses across Victoria. We are committed to the provision of high quality education and training services that support vulnerable people to be able to participate fully in society.
