Settlement Engagement & Transition Support (SETS) Program

At MFO, our Settlement Engagement and Transition Support (SETS) program helps newly arrived migrants and humanitarian entrants feel supported, connected, and confident as they settle into life in Australia.

We work alongside individuals, families, and communities to provide practical guidance, build independence, improve wellbeing, and create stronger social and community connections.

For many people who arrive without family or established support networks, SETS offers a welcoming place to receive help, ask questions, and take the next steps in their settlement journey.
