Crisis Travel
The Travellers Aid Crisis Travel Program is available from our Southern Cross Station site and assists people who need to travel because of an unexpected emergency situation. It also assists people experiencing short-term or long-term disadvantage who want to reunite with family, friends or other support services so they can stay connected and feel safe.
