Jeeran Community Services aims to create a safe space for Arabic-speaking migrant and refugee communities to connect, learn, and grow, reflecting the cultural significance of its name, meaning “neighbours.” Through many culturally and linguistically sensitive initiatives, Jeeran bridges the gap between these communities and broader Australian society, partnering with local organisations and centres in Melbourne’s northern suburbs.

With popular initiatives like the Arabic Playgroup, mental wellness circles, senior’s My Aged Care Program, and professional staff training, Jeeran’s work illustrates a strong local impact and engagement, supported by meaningful connections with local community and government organisations.
