The Transitional Housing Program supports young parenting families aged 18 to 25 experiencing accommodation crisis and provides them with an opportunity to secure independent accommodation. Young parents are supported to learn living skills such as cooking, budgeting, running a household. Additionally, being supported to identify goals and ways to reach those goals. Families are supported by being given a realistic housing experience and supporting them to enter the private rental market and onto the next stage in their lives.
Chameleon Housing currently manages five residential properties that are provided to the young family fully furnished - a place to call home until they can move on independently. The importance of this program is paramount to the reduction of homelessness within this age group, with tenants reporting they felt that participating in the living skills element part of this program ensured they were ready and capable of moving onto independent accommodation.
