Breaking the cycle of disadvantage for children – Kalemi’s Story

“I’m not bored anymore. I like my teacher and all my friends in class” – Kalemi.

Launch Housing’s Education Pathways Program supports regular school attendance, participation and wellbeing of children experiencing homelessness and family violence. The program specifically works to mitigate the negative effects of experiences of homelessness by supporting engagement or re-engagement with mainstream education.

Watch Kalemi’s Story in Launch Housing’s 2022 Impact Report, representative of the experiences of many of the children we support. It was developed in consultation with Education Pathways Program workers who see the incredible impacts of support and early intervention for school age children every day.
