Transitional Community Housing
Support is growing rapidly amongst Rotary clubs to tackle the homelessness challenge we are facing as a society. My own club, Kenthurst is leading the way and DG Niranjan has also thrown his support behind what Transitional Community Housing is achieving in the homelessness sector. Our organisation started some 9 years ago, targeting the fastest growing cohort of homeless people – women over 55. This is a national shame that doesn’t get much publicity. The wait for social and affordable housing can be up to 10 years and Transitional Community Housing Ltd is looking to provide properties to bridge the gap between homelessness and social housing. Our country is in the middle of a housing disaster and it seems the only way to alleviate this problem is through community driven projects such as our program. We have already started presentations to Rotary clubs in district 9685 to raise awareness of homelessness and its root causes and how Rotarians can make a difference to this growing social problem we all face. We have a power point presentation that reveals the cold hard facts and our Chair, Ian Thomson (North Sydney Sunrise Rotary) and I would love to address your club as guest speakers. Our website is www.transitionalcommunityhousing.org.au
