Home share Melbourne caring for people at risk of homelessness
Two Natural ladies have an inspiring conversation with Carla Raynes founder of Home Share Melbourne. This not for profit social enterprise receives no government funding and is in need of our support. There are two initiatives run by the organisation
Disability Housing. With the support of NDIS Home Share Melbourne find accommodation for people with a disability who don’t want to live at home or in a shared housing situation.
This is doing very well and NDIS offer a lot of supportHomeless Home Share Program: helping those at risk of homelessness, particularly young people who need a stable home environment to find work, or continue at school.
What Carla and her team find, including her identical twin sister Jenna, is the people who are placed in these homes end up with a lifelong friendship and sense of community. Something they may not have had previously
Carla shares a wonderful story about a 17 year old girl and asks us to consider opening our home to young people in need. Home Share Australia make sure the home and the young person are a right fit and there are stringent criteria on both sides. Everyone is safe and the end result is an incredible opportunity and experience for everyone involved
We know you will enjoy this interview and please consider supporting this organisation in need of rooms and donations ☺
