Recipient story
Empowering an Aboriginal Elder to remain connected to her home and family.
GIVIT
First Nations Support
This tenant is an elderly Noongar lady who has always focused on caring for her family. As a single parent, she has raised her daughter, two grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren. These achievements have not come without difficulties. The tenant is supporting her child through addiction and a FDV relationship. Her grandchildren express pain-based behaviours often in the form of property damage and violence towards herself. The tenant loves her family but is also a survivor of elder abuse.
This elder abuse has placed her tenancy at risk. The tenant is facing court action, with the possibility of being evicted. The tenant is without a phone. This makes it difficult for her to co-ordinate with support services such as Mental Health, Housing, and advocacy services.
We are asking for the support from a kind individual to support and empower this lady to re-connect with her support services and her family, as she navigates complex legal proceedings to sustain her home.
