Every story matters
Homelessness happens for different reasons. Some of us run into money problems and struggle to keep up with rental payments. Some of us have a poor rental history, or unresolved domestic violence tendencies that make it hard to sign a lease. For others, it’s an ongoing battle with mental health challenges, or a dependency on alcohol and other drugs that ultimately leads to eviction.
We believe housing is a fundamental need for individuals and families to fully experience being part of the community. Our mission is to empower you to find the inner strength and self-determination you need to identify barriers that impact your ability to hold down a tenancy, and support you to set achievable goals to overcome homelessness on your terms. Your story, your way.
What to expect
Navigate the unknown
It can be easy to put all those intimidating process in the too hard basket – and your homelessness journey towards safe and secure housing ends before it starts. Our passion and skill is supporting you to navigate the forms and systems that lay before you.
Act on your behalf
We reach out to homelessness service providers to find the right fit. Once you’re linked, we walk alongside you during the process to boost your confidence, like joining you on a visit to submit forms, or attending a joint meeting with a child protection agency.
Set & achieve goals
As part of our homelessness help, we’ll provide you with a case worker who supports you to identify, plan and set goals that are achievable and measurable, based on what you choose to share with us. Your journey, your terms.
Community connections
We listen to your homelessness story and guide you towards the support and connections you need to thrive, from family, friends, and neighbours, to sports clubs, healthcare centres, mother’s groups and all in between.
The path to better relationships
Once you access our homelessness help, you begin an individual journey designed and driven by you to set you up for long-term success. This is about more than finding a place to stay. While we work hard to unlock housing opportunities, our priority is supporting you to identify the changes you need to make to create the life you want, then find the solutions that help get you there.
Find your circuit breaker
To break the cycle of homelessness for good, we’ll work alongside you to find a circuit breaker that starts you on a new path towards safe and secure housing.
This is your homelessness story
These are personal, deeply private matters here. Maybe you’re ready and willing to share your story. Maybe you’re not quite there yet. Just know that our team is passionate about supporting you and your family with homelessness help to find the inner strength and self determination to make positive change at your own speed, based on whatever you’re willing to share with us. As you tick off your goals one by one, your sense of achievement and confidence grows while you build your ability to sustain and maintain stable housing on your own.
