Laptop needed for Young Person to achieve their employment goals

Supporting young people aged 15-25 who are at homeless or at risk of homelessness. Youth Place is currently supporting a 23-year-old Aboriginal woman who is sleeping in her car. The young person has been experiencing homelessness for the past 1.5 years. During this time, she has experienced Domestic Violence, Mental Health Illness and Financial Hardship. Despite all that the young person has been facing, she is driven to gain employment and find stable housing. The young person had saved up money to purchased herself a laptop to assist with applying for jobs and enrolling in study, however, one month after purchasing herself a new laptop it was broken by a family member. The young person is seeking to replace the broken laptop.

Reaching out to ask for assistance in providing a new laptop for this young person. With a laptop the young person is likely to gain employment and/or complete studies. This will also increase the young person's housing options.
