Helping Women Experiencing Homelessness

Brisbane Girls Grammar School Season 4 Episode 2

The number of Australians, and in particular, Australian women, experiencing homelessness has never been higher and it’s a crisis that shows no sign of slowing.  As a nation, we have never been more reliant on non-profits and charitable organisations to shelter women and their children who are in crisis and have found themselves suddenly without a roof over their head.

For more than a decade, Brisbane Girls Grammar School has supported the Second Chance Programme—a charitable organisation based in Brisbane that raises awareness and support for women and their children experiencing homelessness.

In this episode of Illumine, Ms Jacinda Euler Welsh sits down with Co-founder and Treasurer of the Second Chance Programme, Mrs Marjorie Morton.
