After careful consideration and planning, we’re excited to announce that as of early January, 18 Mitford Street St Kilda will be the new home of First Step. This move represents much more than just a change of address – it’s an opportunity to further develop the way we deliver care and expand our reach to better serve our community.
Mitford Street will provide the space we so desperately need. With enough room for our growing team, we will be able to fully accommodate our multi-disciplinary approach to care. Our clients will continue to receive the comprehensive, compassionate care they’ve come to rely on, in an environment that is both welcoming and practical.
But it’s not just about space – it’s about vision.
18 Mitford Street will be a tailored environment that meets the specific needs of the people we serve. We will have purpose-built rooms for confidential consultations, group therapy, and legal services (including virtual court rooms). The layout will foster collaboration between our healthcare professionals, lawyers and support workers, elevating the level of care we can provide.
The move also aligns with our long-term, strategic goals - by expanding our capacity, we will be better positioned to secure sustainable funding, develop partnerships and continue advancing integrated care in Australia.
We’re creating a space where recovery, resilience, and hope can flourish. We can’t wait to welcome you to our new home and begin this exciting new chapter together.
