WHAT WE DO

HOME provides a long-term home for 20 people living with an enduring mental illness. Each resident lives in a self-contained unit in a safe, loving and non-institutional setting. HOME provides lunch each day cooked by volunteers. Residents come together to enjoy a meal, good conversation and friendship. We encourage residents to have active and fulfilling lives within their community.

HOME does not receive any recurrent government funding; once rents are received, a further $350,000+ p/a is required.

There is nothing more important than shining a light on the dignity of another person.
