Since the weather warning was issued last week, our Outreach Team has been actively supporting vulnerable people in the Brisbane community.
Since last Thursday, we have assisted 35 people per night at Kurilpa Hall, West End, which we set up as a safe place for people experiencing homelessness, or at risk.
We have responded to around 100 outreach calls per day and supported 62 people, including families, to move to safety in motels.
Our Domestic and Family Violence Outreach Team has supported 45 people, working together with the Queensland Police Service and hospitals.
We thank our local community, community members across Brisbane, and all involved across the community in helping bring people to safety and for your valuable support: We Are Mobilise, Emmanuel City Mission, Tzu Chi, Orange Sky, Nourish Street Inc, Brisbane City Council, Department of Housing and Public Works and our local members Renee, Barbara and Trina.
We will continue to adapt and respond as the weather event continues to unfold, with a focus on supporting people at risk.
For people who access our services and programs across Brisbane and South-East Queensland, you will be contacted directly by a member of the Micah Projects team about impacts to local programs, services and community support.
We thank you for your support during this time.
