Hope Street Youth and Family Services proudly supports the First Nations Voice to Parliament and accepts the invitation offered through the Uluru Statement from the Heart, acknowledging that it was developed through consultation with First Nations people across Australia. First Nations people carry the knowledge and wisdom of 65,000 years living in harmony with the environment since creation. We believe their ancestors are due the respect they should have been accorded long ago and that now is the right time for Australia as a nation to show its respect. Sovereignty was never ceded.
Hope Street has a vision to live in a society where all young people and young families have a safe place to call home. If you would like to play a part in ending youth homelessness, join our teams of passionate people making a difference in the lives of young people and young families:
- Team Coordinator (North West)
- Youth Residential Support Worker - 36 hours (FRRM, Melton)
- Youth Residential Support Worker (OPM, Melton)
- Youth Residential Support Worker (OPW, Whittlesea)
- Case Manager (OPW, Whittlesea)
Thank you to all who attended the Annual Celebration Event, including our AGM, today. We hope that you found it informative and enjoyable.
Our Annual Report is now available for you to download and share with your networks:
A coalition of more than 60 organisations, including Melton’s Hope Street Youth and Family Services, Council to Homeless Persons and Youth Affairs Council Victoria has thrown its support behind ending youth homelessness in Victoria. Australian Institute of Health and Welfare figures indicate that of the 8830 young people that approached homelessness services in Victoria last year, 5060 were turned away.

FEATURED PILOT PROGRAM: Hope to Home in Whittlesea
Many young people face obstacles when trying to secure stable accommodation due to no rental history, lack of affordable housing, and no employment to sustain rental leases. The Hope to Home in Whittlesea pilot program will address these issues by:
- Facilitating the transition of up to 30 young people (and their children) from the Hope Street in Whittlesea program or Whittlesea Housing into 1 and 2 bedroom units
- Providing case management once they secure private rental of these units
- Helping these young people maintain their tenancy, employment, education and training, and community connections
- Engaging the support of community stakeholders including local businesses to address barriers contributing to youth homelessness
Please contact us if you would like to become a partner and support at risk young people and young families.
