[4] With the current emphasis on community based care and deinstitutionalisation, Novita Children's Services stopped providing institutional care at Regency Park in 1993,[5] working with children and families in locally based centres and in community settings.
It also provides support under the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS).
[6] Initially relying on public and South Australian Government support the CCA ran the Somerton Crippled Children's Home from 1939,[7] and the Ashford House School,[8] both to 1976.
Both accommodation services and the school then moved Regency Park Centre for the Young Disabled.
[9] In 2019, Novita merged with scosa[10][11] and their headquarters relocated in 2020 to a new facility at Hindmarsh.
