About the organisation
We are Launch Housing. We have an ambitious agenda to achieve our vision of ending homelessness, providing a strong focused voice on homelessness driven by the values of Empowerment, Fresh Thinking, Agility, Leadership and Courage.
We are an independent provider of choice for clients and the ‘go to' organization on homelessness for government, media, philanthropy, private donors and the community.
Clients are at the centre of everything we do and are actively and meaningfully involved in the design, delivery and evaluation of services as well as our policy development, public advocacy and fundraising.
About the role
We are proud to be spearheading a once in a generation project to end homelessness across Melbourne and this has created opportunities for Case Managers to join our team.
The Homelessness to a Home (H2H) partnership is a truly unique opportunity to be involved to make a significant, lasting impact and help
mould this progressive concept. Primarily, you will work with people experiencing homelessness who are currently accommodated in hotel and motel accommodation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Clients will be people with complex histories of trauma and homelessness and with varied support needs.
Working as part of a multi-disciplinary team with partner agencies specialising in health, mental health and AOD, you will support clients who
will transition from hotels to alternative accommodation including head leased properties in the private rental market. The support provision will deliver integrated and flexible housing and wellbeing focused case management support, to address immediate crisis support needs, through to longer term support to establish safe and affordable long-term housing.
