Y-Shac Rockingham

Organisation: Anglicare WA
scheduleClosed

Y-Shac assists young people aged between 15-20 years old who are homeless or at imminent risk of homelessness in crisis accommodation and 16 - 25 year olds who are in transitional housing. Young people find themselves in need of emergency accommodation for a number of reasons, including:
• an unstable home or family life
• family or relationship breakdown
• eviction or unmanageable rising living costs
• risk of, or exposure to, crime, drugs or violence
• no money or loss of steady income
• complex needs
• leaving correctional facilities

If you, or anyone you know, are experiencing any of these things, Y-Shac can help. Services include:
• Shared emergency accommodation in two locations in the Perth metro area with 24 hour support from youth workers.
• Transitional Housing with either one bedroom units with the crisis services or shared houses in the Rockingham or Cockburn regions.
• Support for young people to get back on their feet, including advocacy and referral to specialist services.
• Independent living activities including financial planning, budgeting and tenancy information, and education on health, nutrition and cooking.
• Goal setting and future planning through case management.
• Creative recreational activities.
• A Drug Education and Support Service that focuses on harm minimisation through alcohol and drug education, group activities, and 1-to-1 support.

Y-Shac Spearwood crisis accommodation site is a three bed facility capable of providing short stays and quick admissions. Our Rockingham site is a six bed crisis accommodation facility, for up to six individuals, capable of providing accommodation for up to three months. Both Y-shac sites are operated as a gender neutral service.
