As we know, life can be unpredictable. In those turbulent times in our lives, it’s easy to fall into a downward spiral and become vulnerable to homelessness.

 This is where Carry On steps in to provide a stable foundation for veterans to assess the situation and determine the best course of action for support, which may involve connecting with other support agencies to provide mental and wellbeing support, assisting with financial pressures, or helping find permanent accommodation.

 There are many situations where a veteran and/or their immediate family members may be:

• Homeless or at immediate risk of homelessness.
• Needing accommodation for while the Veteran is hospitalised, and the family cannot afford accommodation to be near or visit them. Particularly applicable for regional families
• Recovering from Pre-op or post-op where the benefit is their access to medical providers.
• Relocating and need accommodation during the gap between their permanent housing.
• In the process of Assessment of claims with DVA/other agencies where the veteran would otherwise need to pay for accommodation but is not homeless.
• Needing Accommodation for the Veteran to provide access to his family and may have supervised visitation orders or are separated by distance
• Attending a Court for legal matters of any kind, where the veteran cannot afford suitable accommodation.

 

Feel free to enquire if you feel you don’t fall into the categories above. Carry On can determine the most effective way to provide support based on individual circumstances.
