About <strong>Interchange</strong><br />
<strong>Interchange</strong> Victoria is a not-for-profit, community based organisation that provides various<br />
services to its member agencies.<br />
The agencies in turn provide support through a wide range of programs to families who have a<br />
child or young person with a disability. The children and young people have a range of physical,<br />
intellectual or sensory disabilities.<br />
These programs provide parents with the opportunity to have a break from their role as carers<br />
and give children the chance to have fun and make new friends away from home.<br />
Victoria's first <strong>Interchange</strong> agency started in 1980 by parents of children with disabilities and<br />
supporters. There are now six stand alone <strong>Interchange</strong> agencies and seven auspice <strong>Interchange</strong><br />
programs throughout Victoria and three <strong>Interchange</strong> Licensee programs interstate.<br />
<strong>Interchange</strong> Victoria was created in response to the <strong>Interchange</strong> agencies requiring a central body<br />
to provide vital services. <strong>Interchange</strong> Victoria provides the following services:<br />
Marketing and Promotions<br />
Training & Development<br />
Support and Resourcing<br />
Leadership<br />
The main goal of <strong>Interchange</strong> Victoria is to<br />
support its members in the delivery of respite<br />
care services by promoting their program<br />
and the need for volunteers .<br />
<strong>Interchange</strong> Victoria is accountable to a Board of<br />
Management and receives recurring funding from the<br />
Ministry of Health - Home and Community Care program.<br />
<strong>Interchange</strong> Victoria also relies on government and<br />
philanthropic grants, partners, sponsors, donors and<br />
supporters to deliver services to it’s member programs.<br />
