What the service does
The Victorian Aboriginal Funeral Service is run by the Aborigines Advancement League. It supports Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families after someone has passed away. People can get assistance to plan and organise a funeral. This includes transport, paperwork, coffins, and working with the person leading the service. The service also helps reduce the cost of funerals by covering some upfront costs where needed. This service is available to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples across Victoria. People can discuss eligibility for funeral support when enquiring with the service.
