MHACA Beanie wins at Alice Springs Beanie Festival 2016
MHACA joined the DASA Alice Springs 40-year event to celebrate the work they do supporting people impacted by alcohol and other drug use. We had a great morning at the Alice Springs Town Council lawns and had good conversations with service providers and community members who visited our health promotion stall. Thanks for having us!
We hope you have a great weekend and have a chance to enjoy some time in nature!
