We spend time learning about what people want to do, what they dream of doing and what interests them. We spend time finding out who’s important in a person’s life and how we can work together.

At Gateway Services we offer disability programs which provide supports that reflect what we have learned about people and we offer opportunities to explore and experience new things. We work with people to create a plan for their future and then look at how we can support them to bring their plan to life.
 

Who do we support?      

Gateway Services provide disability programs that support people who are 18 and older who have an intellectual disability, or an acquired brain injury.
     

Funding for Places

For most people, placements are funded by the Department of Human Services (DHS).

We can negotiate placements funded through other sources; such as TAC and private funding. These arrangements will be based on the criteria used for placements funded by DHS.
 

Other Costs                           

Villa Maria charges a quarterly service fee of $300

In addition to the service fee, each person’s weekly cost is based on their individual arrangements. These costs vary from a quarterly amount of less then $100 to more than $600.
 

Other Options                       

Individualized supports can be negotiated based on a schedule of fees and charges.

Gateway services disability programs are located at Kew, Mount Waverley and Wantirna.
