About institution

Notes:
Sutherland Homes provided out of home care for children. Dormitory style care was phased out in the early 60's and care then provided from cottage homes. Sutherland Homes also provided a range of family services within the Northern parts of Melbourne. Sutherland Homes merged with Berry Street in 1994. This is included through Berry Street Victoria.

The Australian Government acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples throughout Australia and their continuing connection to land, water, culture and community. We pay our respects to the Elders both past and present.
