About this agency
Description
On 28 June 1984 the private entity Julia Farr Centre Inc was dissolved by proclamation and the Julia Farr Centre was established as an incorporated health centre under section 48 (1) of the South Australian Health Commission Act 1976 (South Australian Governmnet Gazette 28/06/1984 p.1895). By virtue of subsection 48 (3) of the records of the former private entity were transferred and vested in Julia Farr Centre, thereby becoming official records under the State Records Act 1997.
In 1994 the Julia Farr Centre was renamed Julia Farr Services and while parts of the Fullarton site remained in operation, other parts were sold. In 2006 Julia Farr Services became a part of Disability SA and was renamed Highgate Park.
