Aftercare’s Miller Relocation Program was a Crisis Accommodation Service located in the Liverpool Area. Today we are excited to announce that the program is no longer a Crisis Accommodation Service, but now a Long Term Accommodation Service with a new name – Marinya (meaning ‘to care for’).
During the search for a new name, Aftercare contacted Aboriginal Elders from the Casula and Ingleburn areas (in consultation with Robyn Albert, Aftercare’s Aboriginal Services Team Leader) to find a name which had Aboriginal origins and was specific to the location of our service. Clients and staff were also consulted and ‘Marinya’ was chosen as the most suitable name.
