Grant Activity:
Murphy House Extension
Purpose:
The project will extend Murphy House by constructing an additional two bedroom units and recreation room, to increase the capacity of the program offered by Pathways to College.
STEPS Group Australia (STEPS) opened Pathways College in May 2017, welcoming young adults with disability into a full time residential independent living skills program - the first in Australia. Pathways students reside in pairs in self-contained units specially designed to reflect an independent living environment. There are 5 double units in Murphy House, our boarding college, where each student has the privacy of their own bedroom, bathroom & patio. This facility, valued at $1.6million, was constructed largely through the generosity of our local community. Our pilot period showed that the 10 student spaces currently available is unviable, and that a total of 14 spaces are needed to ensure the program remains viable in the future. The building of two more double units on-site requires external funding to support our own contribution to the total building cost.
