The Australasian Therapeutic Communities Association

The Australasian Therapeutic Communities Association (ATCA) is a member based organisation, representing not-for-profit alcohol and other drug organisations across Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand, who deliver treatment utilising the Therapeutic Community Model, or aspire to become a Therapeutic Community.

ATCA acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the Traditional Custodians of this country and its waters. We wish to pay our respect to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders past and present, to all emerging community leaders, and all First Nations people reading this message.
