Meet Joshua! Life for Joshua was challenging at times. He was sleeping rough in the dunes whilst trying to navigate a newly diagnosed schizoaffective disorder . Feeling unwell and vulnerable, Josh spent six months in a mental health unit and was referred to Momentum Collective’s Psychosocial Rehabilitation Program . Josh lived in one of our 24/7 assisted living accommodations, receiving quality residential support from our specialised staff. Joshua’s well-being improved as he regained independence and self-care. Josh also enrolled and completed a Certificate IV in Community Services and has found work supporting others in similar situations. With integrative support from Assisted Living , Mental Health and Community Housing teams, Joshua thrived and is currently looking for a rental property. “Momentum Collective saved my life. Your staff and programs gave me stability and the right support. I would still be homeless if it wasn’t for Momentum.”
