Practice Framework
Our past, present and future
This document describes Odyssey House Victoria (OHV). It outlines our history; how this shapes our operation today and its continued influence on our future.
It acknowledges our past and describes the way our purpose and values influence us an organisation. It describes our identity, and the principles at the core of the relationships we develop with the people who use our services, as well as our staff, and our partner organisations.
It also describes the way we approach our work practices, the programs and services we provide, and the evidence-based frameworks we draw on, in addition to our own areas of research and expertise, and the public advocacy we undertake.
We believe that reflecting on and documenting our organisational identity and practices allows us to grow and develop as we strive to meet new challenges, whilst always maintaining the highest standards of care.
