Break Thru Formally Merged With Norwood Association

New era for Norwood

For over 25 years Norwood Association has provided community health outreach services to people at risk of or experiencing homelessness, unemployment poverty and social isolation. We have supported people with mental illness and associated psychiatric disabilities, by providing rehabilitation services to youth and adults residing in the Brimbank, Melton and Sunbury communities.

In order to provide our clients with the best possible service, the Norwood Association will be merged with Break Thru People Solutions. This decision was not made lightly. Break Thru is a highly reputable not-for-profit organisation responsible for the delivery of Government funded mental health, employment, training and other community service programs to vulnerable Australians. Operating across Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia, Break Thru strives to assist its clients to achieve their full potential, including breaking through the challenges of mental illness.

Like Norwood, Break Thru operates with the belief that the service can affect real and lasting change to the lives of all members of the local community. We are all very excited about this new phase in Norwood’s history and the positive outcomes it will provide for our clients.

Break Thru formally merged with Norwood Association on 1 April 2013. Break Thru now operates all Norwood programs with no interruption to client service delivery. Break Thru employs previous Norwood employees and is now responsible for the delivery of all Norwood programs and administration of all funding.

Under the Break Thru banner, the organisation offers people living with mental illness a comprehensive suite of services, all of which are vital to mental health recovery.
