The society’s aims were to seek education or training facilities for people with intellectual disabilities, to establish sheltered workshops, and to establish residential hostels.[2] A number of sheltered workshops were established, and in 1980, the name was changed to the Aboriginal word "Orana", which means "Welcome". Today, Orana provides assisted employment, assisted accommodation and respite services to people with intellectual disabilities. Orana's current and previous clients include Mitsubishi Motors, Clipsal, RAA, Elders Limited, and Billycart Kids.[3] Orana was one of the first disability service organisations to achieve Quality Accreditation. The services and products they offer are:[4]
In 2018, after 65 years of bettering people’s lives, Orana identified a community need and expanded their operations into the aged care sector. After the unveiling of the Australian Government’s Commonwealth Home Support Programme (CHSP) and seeing it as a natural step of progression, Orana now provides quality tailored aged care at home. The well-resourced organization delivers help across a range of areas, helping the elderly remain where they want to be - in the comfort of their own home during their later years. Orana continues with its mission to support people remain independent, valued and productive members of the community.
