As we observe Homelessness Week 2021, Victoria has an opportunity to transform youth homelessness in our state and change it for good.
Thank you to those who have supported the West Refuge in Werribee, supporting young people with emergency accommodation and practical, mental health and therapeutic wrap around supports.
As part of of our series to acknowledge some of our great women leaders at MCM, we caught up with Lisa O’Brien, Senior Manager Youth And Family Homelessness Services to chat about International Women’s Day (IWD) and what inspires her most.
Indigenous Australians carry the legacy of one of the oldest living cultures in the world but are sadly overrepresented in homelessness statistics.
The LGBTQIA+ community are at a higher risk of experiencing youth homelessness, and often encounter discrimination when seeking support.
Melbourne City Mission’s Frontyard Youth Services building is a finalist for Development of the Year - Hotels & Accommodation in The Urban Developer Awards 2020.
Produced by young people for young people, MCM launched its first podcast series this week, Their Journey Home, putting a spotlight on the challenges three of the most overrepresented communities face in Victoria’s youth homelessness system.
During the past few months MCM has partnered with several businesses to ensure our clients have access to food and essential items, at a time when demand on our services was high and many of Victoria’s most at-risk during the coronavirus shut-downs were unable to source their own supplies.
COVID-19 has had an immeasurable impact on our daily lives, and isolation is incredibly difficult for young people and families experiencing homelessness.
