Royal Commission into Defence and Veteran Suicide commissioners visited the Pro Patria Centre after concluding the hearings in Wagga.

Commissioners Nick Kaldas (chair), Dr Peggy Brown and James Douglas were taken for a tour around the centre by members of the centre.

The Pro Patria Property Trust is transforming the Carmelite Monastery into a clinical treatment support site for veterans, defence and emergency support personnel. The centre will serve as an innovative multidisciplinary facility that provides sorely needed holistic health treatments to veterans and first responders.
