Keeping Families Together: Pilot Project Study

In July 2020, the Keeping Families Together (KFT) Supportive Housing pilot project was launched in Brisbane to provide supportive housing for families experiencing multiple vulnerabilities (i.e., extremely low income, at risk of or experiencing homelessness, and at risk of or experiencing intervention by the child protection system). This report provides an empirical study of the KFT Supportive Housing pilot model and its delivery, as well as the experiences and outcomes of the families who participated in the pilot. In conducting this study, we focused on KFT’s three key areas of interest: housing access and sustainment; child protection; and family stability.
