St Kilda Sobering Centre

About St Kilda Sobering Centre

The Department of Health Victoria lists a sobering centre in St Kilda operated by Ngwala Willumbong Aboriginal Corporation as part of Victoria's public intoxication response, covering metropolitan Melbourne, Wyndham and Frankston for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Ngwala describes the response as providing engagement, screening, in-place supports, consented transport, monitoring and short-term care in a safe place where a person can sober up with regular welfare checks, followed by referrals. Published eligibility requires the person to be intoxicated in public, to identify as or be known to be Aboriginal, to be able to give informed consent, to have no known serious health issue requiring urgent medical attention, and to pose no safety risk. No street address, capacity, opening hours or direct contact number is published.
