Tegan – A Young Mum Steps Up

At Haven House Coburg, young mum *Tegan is blossoming into a more mature parent and has stepped into a leadership role.

The six-bedroom home is managed by our charity partners, Lighthouse Foundation, who provide a therapeutic program for young mums impacted by neglect, abuse and homelessness. At Haven House Coburg they can finally belong, heal and thrive.

Tegan is one of four disadvantaged young mums and their babies and toddlers who are supported by two live-in carers in the home. Tegan has two small children; her eldest is three and loves the welcoming, familiar feel of the house. She spends lots of happy time riding her bike in the yard and using the play equipment.

Meanwhile, Tegan has developed into a mentor for other residents.

Good luck, Tegan!

*Not her real name

Mirvac joined forces with Plantmark in a workerbee at Haven House Coburg on 4 May doing a garden clean up and supporting young mums like Tegan to find their feet as parents. Get your team involved in a workerbee and give back to homeless youth.
