Westside Housing, St Vincent de Paul Society SA and Shelter SA are working together to bring Homeshare to South Australia and we have an exciting update for you!
Homeshare is a tried and true platform that is evidence-based and put into practice all over the world, safely and successfully matching and supporting people to share their homes and their lives.
Bringing a Homeshare service to South Australia supports the Recommendations of the Taskforce on Older Women and Housing Security, which in September 2023 identified preventative and responsive approaches to address older women's housing security in South Australia.
The recommendations the State Government has pledged to continue implementing, highlight that addressing housing insecurity requires government, non-government and the broader South Australian community to invest in initiatives that improve housing security for older South Australian women. This Homeshare Pilot is one such initiative, as Westside Housing and Vinnies SA are proudly supporting the employment of the Homeshare Coordinator position with their own funds and we acknowledge their vision and commitment to assisting people who desperately need a safe place to stay.
Today we are inviting older, single, female homeowners to express their interest in learning more about how Homeshare works. We are not quite ready to invite people who need a place to stay to join us yet, but we are hoping we can do this very soon, especially since we know there is so much need in the community.
For more information, the
Homeshare website is now live and we await your call!
