The Salvation Army Australia is a national Christian movement, united by faith and giving hope where it's needed most. Across the country, we're engaged with every demographic and every age group. We're active in the big cities, the country towns and even in rural communities. You’ll find us involved in national issues and you’ll also find us on the ground day and night, bringing hope wherever there is hardship or injustice. The Positive Lifestyle Counselling Services, previously known as the Positive Lifestyle Centre was started in 1993 by Major Ted Gray to assist people going through the court system especially those who re-offended time after time, which in turn placed them at great risk both emotionally and physically. Realizing a great need for these people to address why they repeatedly offended the Positive Lifestyle Program was implemented. Today the Centre is a growing network linked to many other services conducted in two shop fronts opposite the Dandenong Magistrates court.
