Jean McCaughey Social Justice Sub Fund

The Jean McCaughey Social Justice Sub Fund supports research projects that relate to women in the areas of

  • homelessness,
  • poverty and family well-being, or

Project: Diverting Women From COVID-Related Homelessness

Grant type: Sub Fund
Amount: $8,075
Year: 2020-21
Website: homeshare.org.au/


The project will use the international model of homeshare to divert women from homelessness into safe affordable housing with caring community members. Five women who are at risk of experiencing homelessness due to COVID-19 related job losses will be matched with people offering accommodation at low or no cost in their homes. This project will enable us to collect evidence to demonstrate that the homeshare model can make a cost effective contribution to ending homelessness.
