The staff at Foundation House form a base of expertise that is drawn upon by a range of organisations both nationally and internationally.

When Foundation House was established few similar services existed, so building an appropriate and skilled staff team was a primary goal. Foundation House continues to invest heavily in professional development and benefits from a remarkable pool of talent.

With a range of professional backgrounds and talents, the staff at Foundation House are at the core of its success.

The Direct Services arm of the organisation is structured into three regional teams that provide services to refugee survivors of torture and trauma. Alongside Direct Services, the Service Innovation Program team works with refugee and wider communities to develop new programs of capacity building. The work of the Refugee Health Research Centre, a partnership with LaTrobe University, completes the nexus of direct service provision, innovation, research and policy development. Meanwhile, the Agency Operations team manages the overall administration of Foundation House.
