The name Weeroona was chosen from Aboriginal language and means ‘Resting Place’ to reflect a place where people with disability and their families can come and take a breath and receive support.
At Weeroona, we acknowledge the Traditional Owners of Country throughout Australia and recognise the continuing connection to lands, waters and communities. We pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures; and to Elders past and present.
