Melbourne City Mission’s Frontyard Services were in need of redevelopment when it came together with PIF, the Victorian State Government and other philanthropists to undertake a $9m project.
In an outstanding effort, more than $1.5 million in services were donated pro-bono through PIF to the Frontyard redevelopment by a large consortium of top-tier consultants.
Frontyard, Victoria’s largest youth homelessness service provider, has been transformed into a four-storey building with two floors of new crisis accommodation and connected services, designed to disrupt the cycle of youth homelessness in Victoria.
The redeveloped Frontyard, designed by architecture firm Fender Katsalidis, is the first in the country to combine crisis accommodation with multiple support services (such as on-site mental health, drug and alcohol and disability support) for young Australians around the clock, 7 days a week.
