Frontier Services operates a number of community support programs including Financial Services and Migrant Services. Our migrant services support those settling in remote communities who are isolated by distance as well as by culture and language.
A major focus of the work is on women who generally do not have the benefits of socialisation offered in the workplace. Our staff assist newly arrived migrants to access services including health, education, family support, driver education, commercial services and support groups.
