Increase funding urgently for Central Coast Homeless support services

Rumbalara Refuge located in Gosford NSW as part of Coast Shelter has missed out on vital funding by the State Goverments reform package in the homeless sector.

After over 22 years of helping teenagers get back on their feet they will be forced to close their doors and we, the people will NOT sit back and let this happen. I, Mitchell Connolly, now an adult and living a prosperous life owe everything I am to this shelter as do many of my peers, many whom I have never met & many young kids today who are living within in the refuge system.

Rumbalara Refuge & it's amazing team of youth workers help put a roof over young children's heads who cannot live at home due to physical/mental abuse, sexual abuse, neglect and many other life changing reasons. They give you all the tools needed to change your life from support to rehabilitation to gaining employment and lead you on a path that you would never have been lead to if not for their guidance.

With homelessness in the central coast area rising rapidly we say NO to shutting the doors to the only purpose built refuge on the coast and demand the funding to keep Rumbalara and other local refuges open. Our kids are our tomorrow, they deserve seconds chances at life!
