Moving Home Grants

The Youngcare Moving Home Grants provide essential funding to assist people in moving from inappropriate housing, such as aged care, rehabilitation, or hospital, into somewhere more appropriate. This may involve returning home or transitioning to more specific housing for their needs, such as Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA).

Up to $5,000 is available for people with extreme functional impairment caused by a physical disability. This funding can be used for essential equipment, home modifications and services, household items, and utilities to ensure an improvement in the individual’s quality of life.

These grants are open year-round (except for a month over Christmas) or until the funds run out. Panel Meetings are held on the first Thursday of each month, with completed applications required 2 days before.
