About us

For over 30 years, Rural Lifestyle Options Australia has been dedicated to addressing unmet need across rural and regional communities.

As an organisation, we are passionate about supporting others to chase their dreams and aspirations. Reinforced by our purpose of ‘Tailored supports and compassionate care delivered by our valued team to inspire individuals to lead independent and fulfilling lives within the community’ we achieve this – one person and one life goal at a time.

Rural Lifestyle Options Australia’s commitment to the people who access our services remains resolute, proudly underpinned by our organisation’s motto of “Big enough to provide the service, small enough to look after you.” For more information about who we are and what we do, please visit our website at www.rloa.org.au
