Sixty-five people from parishes across the
Diocese of Sandhurst gathered
at St Brendan’s parish centre in Shepparton to discuss and share ideas
about what could be done to alleviate homelessness in the region. The
forum, auspiced by
CatholicCare Sandhurst, Catholic Social Services
Victoria, and the diocese of Sandhurst, resulted in each participating
parish adopting a plan to deepen their contribution to addressing
homelessness and the shortage of affordable housing.
