The Walking Home Mission
To raise awareness and understanding of homelessness issues within the Barwon South Western region. "As we walk together, we challenge ourselves and our communities - to take ownership for understanding, improving and preventing homelessness. There is a better way. We challenge you to create it. On this journey we seek to support the creation and delivery of resources and
services to prevent and end homelessness. " As a cross-agency initiative, Walking Home brings together a diverse range of service providers in one voice to "bust some of the myths" around homelessness. By improving awareness about homelessness issues in the Barwon South Western region, the Walking Home team aims to set a platform for local networks, services and communities to work together. Walking Home symbolizes the partnership and commitment these agencies share in supporting, advocating and representing the most vulnerable, marginalized and disadvantaged members of our communities. At the end of their journey, the Walking Home team has homes to go to – thousands of Australians do not.
