About Us

The Farm in Galong Ltd (the Farm) is a residential rehabilitation centre established to address the needs of women recovering from drug and alcohol addiction. We help them transition from the live-in program to independent living, restoring children who may have been removed, repairing relationships with family and in the community, and ultimately making a recovery permanent. 


Residents live and work together in an atmosphere of honesty and mutual respect.   Women are supported to exit the program (usually around 12 months) when they have the appropriate level of independence.
