Lifehouse
 Australia  |  Community/Family

To provide a practical response to a need in our community, to effect social change that reduces poor health, poverty, homelessness and helplessness.

We began planning a response to the growing number of young people at risk of homelessness and teenage parenting, back in 2002. We began thinking and praying about what we could do, planning, researching and networking to gain a better understanding of the issues and the need. Homelessness is a crisis situation many young people and young parents face, with a lack of affordable accommodation and a great shortage of supported accommodation on the Gold Coast, many find themselves living in unsuitable or crisis accommodation and turning to crime, prostitution or drugs to cope with their situation. We realised that Lifehouse Project could provide support to young people and make a difference in our community.
