Lutheran Care
At Lutheran Care, we believe our communities are stronger when each and every person feels included and cared for.
Founded 50 years ago on the principles of the Lutheran Church, we have always been champions of advocacy and equity, serving the needs and fighting for the rights of those who have fallen through the cracks of the system.
Ours is a powerful and persistent voice for the voiceless. Whoever you are, wherever you come from, we will walk side by side with you, regardless of cultural background, sexual orientation, gender identity, belief systems or circumstances.
Beyond working to have a lasting, positive impact on people’s lives, we are determined to build hope, understanding and drive long-term systematic change.
Unbound by convention, we are leaders in our sector and community, always exploring new, innovative ways of helping people find comfort and purpose.
We seek no reward or recognition beyond doing what’s right for our people. This is what inspires and drives us. It is the source of our unity and our strength.
Caring and warm, we are guided by faith and compassion, always listening, advocating and building stronger communities where people can belong and thrive.
NATIONAL HOMELESSNESS WEEK 2021
1-7 AUGUST
A few words from our Chief Executive Officer, Rohan Feegrade:
National Homelessness Week aims to raise awareness and encourage our community to work together to find long term solutions, including increasing the supply of housing across the country to ensure that no one is without a safe, secure and affordable home. By working together we can solve homelessness and make it part of our history!
The causes of homelessness are often multiple, including poverty, loss of employment, cost of living, deteriorating health, insecure housing, lack of social housing, family breakdown and family violence.
Homelessness profoundly impacts not only the individual’s life with regard to their physical and mental well-being, access to education, employment, not being able to feel safe and secure in a home, but also the lives of people connected to the person through disconnection and isolation.
Whilst 7% of people experiencing homelessness are sleeping rough, they are exposed to increased vulnerability around their safety, health and well-being. Street homelessness can be solved.
This week we ask you to help us prevent and end homelessness. Your support is greatly appreciated.
How you can support:
• If you pass someone on the street, sleeping rough, take the time to say hello; have a conversation with the person or even offer to buy the person something to eat. Human connection does make a difference.
• Consider purchasing a copy of The Big Issue – supporting many within our community with employment and connection to others.
• Considering volunteering with an organisation assisting people who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness.
• If you believe that homelessness has no place in our community and we can solve it together, consider contacting your local Member of Parliament.
• You can find out about how we and our partners in the Toward Home Alliance are working together to prevent and end homelessness at www.lccare.org.au/toward-home
• If you wish to support the important work of Lutheran Care working with people and communities, please consider a donation at www.lccare.org.au/donate
