To those experiencing homelessness in this bitter cold, Lighthouse MI is providing a lifeline.
Storyteller. Video and Documentary Producer. 15x Emmy Winner. Public Relations Pro. Entrepreneur. Proud Mom.
Client News: There is a great need all year round, but during these bitter cold winter months, helping those who are homeless get to a place that's warm and safe comes with an extra sense of urgency. Lighthouse MI is helping so many families and *children* in need. During this shoot with CBS Detroit yesterday, one shelter guest walked through the door just back from the hospital with her 2 day old baby. What if she had no place to go?

“We do a budget to find out what’s affordable. Then find out more about the type of property they want; we discuss the market rent (they are all shocked by the cost of renting in Sydney), how to look for a property (we look at Domain and similar apps), what to expect when going to an inspection, what to check for, what’s required when applying for a property, and how to apply. For participants, a major requirement is easy access to public transport because most don’t drive. Other than that it depends on the individual – someone prefers a one-bedroom over a studio, one has to have gas, one wants good water pressure in the shower. One participant was concerned about security, she closely examined the main door, the locks and everything. We encourage them to go and inspect in person. One participant asked, ‘Can I just do a video call or can you go on my behalf?’ We explained pictures can be deceiving, we can support you during the inspection but you have to go there, you will be the one living there! By the time survivors leave the program they are more confident, they have more power, they feel like their own person, and it builds their independent living skills as well. Toward the end they have fair knowledge of their rights as a tenant. I do holistic casework with them, we are focused on every area that can help them be more independent – legal, employment, education, health, social relationships etc. During our final meeting I might ask, ‘If your landlord comes knocking what will you do?’ I test their knowledge and understanding to make sure they are prepared and can advocate for themselves.” 8 February is the International Day of Prayer and Awareness Against Human Trafficking. In 2020 we joined the fight against human trafficking and modern slavery with our launch of the Modern Slavery Transitional Housing Program in collaboration with The Salvation Army Australia. The Foundation provides funding to program participants to set up their new homes and cover a portion of their rent for six to 12 months, and to the Salvos to employ dedicated caseworker Brinda Moktan – who works one-on-one with survivors to help them secure a rental, educate them on their rights and responsibilities as a tenant, ensure their general health and wellbeing, and guide them toward independence. #RaiseTheRoof #ModernSlavery #EndHumanTrafficking #HumanTrafficking #HumanTraffickingAwareness

I'm happy to share my first webinar appearance (right at the one-hour mark) to discuss SchoolHouse Connection's support of the #EvictionCrisisAct, a bipartisan legislative initiative that will soon be reintroduced in the United States Senate by Senators Michael Bennet (D-CO) and Todd Young (R-IN). The Eviction Crisis Act is a major policy proposal that will dramatically impact the national housing crisis and support millions of low-income and middle class Americans, including many children and youth. Specifically, this legislation will create a new permanent emergency rental assistance program to reduce preventable evictions, limit the devastation to families when eviction is unavoidable, and shed light on the root causes of the eviction crisis. Sign-up to SHC's e-news to get alerted when this legislation is reintroduced and for ways you can raise this issue with your Senators.

This is harrowing. Well done Inside Housing and Keith Cooper for highlighting such an important challenge to local authorities which will support better outcomes for families with young children whose circumstances have resulted in them requiring emergency housing. Powerfully written and I hope this can start an important conversation about how local government must change. WARNING The article could be triggering David Johnston OBE Lee Rowley Simon Hoare #socialhousing #emergency #childrenswellbeing #betteroutcomes #bethechange #localgov #councils #socialcare #childrenshealth #families #temporaryhousing #housing https://lnkd.in/eTbtqQWt
