More than 100 women who would otherwise have been sleeping rough have been housed through the SCP partnership with the Brisbane Housing Company and other agencies – through the ‘bridge the gap’ program. Close to fifty women have been accommodated in Bed 14 at the Anglican Women’s Hostel, and have been provided with counselling, services, and assistance with appropriate accommodation.
Because it is young women who are now in such great need funds have been provided to Bahloo to reunite young women with their supportive families. SCP is negotiating with agencies such as Othila’s (that provides accommodation and services for young women) with the aim of supporting their projects.
