About SASI
SASI is a non-profit organisation
Funded through government grants, donations & fundraising activities.
SASI has a proud history stretching over 50 years. Our original service was run by the dedicated parents of six children who were once excluded from the education system. SASI is now a thriving operation serving over 220 people in Victoria daily.
What we do
We are not a ‘minding service.’ Nor are our clients ‘just a number.’
We provide day services (now called SASI Active Choices), recreational activities, accommodation and children’s residential respite. Our goal is to not only meet but exceed the developmental needs of our clients and their families.
We constantly monitor each person’s progress. Families and carers receive regular feedback based on the evidence we collect from this process.
Our staff are highly trained, skilled, committed and responsive to client and family requirements. Our specialist knowledge is key to meeting the needs of our high-end autism clients. This is vital where communication is difficult, behaviours of concern are evident and personal care is a challenge.
As a corporation SASI is big enough to ensure a premium and expert service at all times. We’re also small enough to offer the personal service clients and carers need daily.
SASI employs staff across 12 locations in Victoria
These include:
- 5 services providing Active Choices
- 6 Shared Supported Accommodation facilities
- 2 homes providing 1:1 support
- Community Based Recreation
