Somewhere To Come Home To

San Miguel provides a stable home, social interaction with other young families, skills for independent living, child development support, expressive therapy, play groups, counselling and advice.

We provide not just temporary accommodation for parents and children, but also counselling and guidance to help families tackle the issues creating homelessness. We know that when young parents secure sustainable housing and employment, their children’s prospects improve dramatically.

Early intervention is critical to breaking the cycle of intergenerational poverty, housing instability and welfare dependence.
