Our local community is now very aware of the prevalence of homelessness within our neighbourhoods. It is hard not to be confronted with the tragic impacts of unaffordable housing, rising living costs and conflict within the family home.

Many of us are asking what can we do?

For over 40 years our local community-owned response – Fusion Mornington Peninsula – has welcomed young people most impacted by the heartbreaking reality of homelessness. Today this response is carrying the heavy weight of the influx that has come from our local housing crisis. Despite this weight, our community is committed to continuing to create ways where young people and young families faced with the bleakness of homelessness and family violence can find safety, community, and home.

Within the heart of our community lies a need for an authentic togetherness that holds the capacity to chase away the darkness our young ones carry. Let’s invite that heart to lead us all home.
