Case Study: Becoming Debt Free

“Kara” is a 34 year old woman with four dependent children. She connected with our Family Law program after fleeing her relationship and the family home with her children. 

In doing so, she was burdened with $30,000+ worth of debt, no stable housing and no means to earn a living and support her family.

After working with our Family Law services, our Financial Counsellor, Kara was able to have most of her debt waived and concessions backdated to reduce overall bills and forward expenses.

Kara is now debt free, and is enrolled to study nursing with financial assistance after being connected with external providers such as Mission Australia and Good Shepherd Financial Independence Hub.

Kara is now excited for the future for her and her family “I feel like I have won the lottery…”.
