Mobile Homes Exhibition

October 2009

The “Mobile Homes” exhibition held in
the Gallery space at the City Library in
September drew attention through
photographic displays to the absolute
importance of the mobile phone for
young homeless people as a means
of staying connected to significant
people in their lives.

Through the photographic display and
stories told by young people about their
experience, pastoral care, along with
other youth workers, sought to give
expression to the importance of identity.

Melbourne Citymission

For 155 years, Melbourne Citymission has worked with disadvantaged people across Melbourne and Victoria. Every week we help thousands of people build a clear pathway out of disadvantage, economic exclusion and social isolation.

Our services support:

  • people to find a pathway out of homelessness
  • disabled people to get the resources and support they need to live the life they want
  • people to break the cycle of poverty and abuse
  • people to find jobs, or enter into education and training.
