Breaking barriers – the power of employment

14 January 2019

From time-to-time we come across stories from overseas that resonate with our work and also inspire the work we do.  We know housing breaks the cycle of homelessness, and employment can help break the cycle of poverty.

We’re having discussions about what more we can do to support people into employment after they move from the streets into their own home; it’s just the start of a bigger focus around people, wellbeing and the ability to live a great life.

Check out this story from the UK about an organisation that is helping homeless people from the streets and into employment.
