With a proud history of providing quality, progressive and individualised programs and activities for adults with intellectual disabilities, the Centre has been in operation since 1956.

Mulleraterong is proud to have been the recipient of many awards and achievements for our work, including being one of the first Centres in Victoria to be registered as a Quality Assured Organisation that meets the Standards for Disability Services in Victoria.

Mulleraterong currently provides over 55 programs and activities which meet a wide range of needs and requirements of adults with an intellectual disability. Activities are tailored to individuals as required.

How you can help

People with a disability may choose to access services from Mulleraterong Centre. The number of people coming to the Centre determines the amount of funding the Centre receives from the Department of Human Services in Victoria and it is based on the level of need of each person. This funding covers basic running costs and staff wages but we need to augment this to ensure we continue to provide quality services to our clients.

Fundraising in the past has enabled us to purchase communication aids, personal lifting equipment, wheelchairs, and various other program equipment which is beyond the Centre's ordinary funding. Fundraising has also contributed to the recent redevelopment of the Centre building.

As a supporter of Mulleraterong Centre you have the opportunity to help us make a difference to the lives of intellectually disabled adults in Western Victoria.
