Supporting Us - Community Benefits

Calvary John James Hospital is proud to support Home in Queanbeyan (HOME). The vision of HOME is to create a safe, supportive home for those who have been forgotten and abandoned by the community at large; a place where the homeless, mentally ill - and those incapable of living independently - can live with the dignity and love they deserve.

The Home in Queanbeyan will be completed by the end of 2008 and will provide 24 hour care for up to 20 people with chronic mental illness who are without proper shelter, care, love and support; or may be in need of short term respite care. The founders of HOME hope that this project will inspire others to do the same and is the beginning of a cultural shift in which communities lead the way in taking responsibility for citizens who are extremely vulnerable, isolated, and often homeless.
