About the Lighthouse Foundation
At Lighthouse, homeless young people, usually aged 15 – 22 years who have experienced traumatic backgrounds receive intensive support and care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They live in safe homes where they are given the opportunity to heal, form meaningful relationships and rebuild their lives.

Experienced live in Carers act as a therapeutic parent, providing the support that’s needed, together with a range of tailored therapeutic, education and life skills training activities. A team of professional psychologists, counsellors and youth workers help the young people to heal and guide them to create their own futures. Along the way, they learn to relate to others, rebuild their dignity and self-respect, develop self-confidence and the capacity to trust others.

It might take a while – but at Lighthouse, we work with them for as long as it takes. When they are almost ready to transition to independent living, the young people can bridge the gap between the security of a Lighthouse home and independent living by moving to the Lighthouse transition home. Here they are provided with the support necessary to make their transition to independent living within the community successful.

The Lighthouse program provides young people with ‘life membership’. This means that even when a young person has moved out of a Lighthouse home, they can remain connected to the Lighthouse family and community through the Aftercare and Outreach program.
