At MiCare, we understand that some people need more help than others. Refugees and asylum seekers can arrive with multiple, challenging and complex settlement needs, beyond the scope of our usual Settlement Programs. 

For these people, MiCare has Specialised Intensive Services, a program offering more intensive case management services.

Our highly experienced case managers work with these vulnerable clients on many issues, including:

• Experience of severe torture and trauma
• Family conflict, family breakdown and family violence
• Homelessness and housing instability
• Mental health issues and substance abuse
• Serious physical health issues and disability
• Social isolation
• Poor life skills
• At-risk youth and child welfare issues

Tailored and specific supports and interventions are available through MiCare’s Specialised Intensive Services, with the aim of clients reaching independence and realising their aspirations. The service can vary in duration from several weeks to several months, depending on the issues facing the individual client.
