Comprehensive residential support
Every element of Tiqvah House is designed with one goal in mind — helping residents build the skills, confidence, and connections they need to thrive independently.
Small Residential Capacity
Intentionally small to ensure every resident receives genuine, personalised attention and support.
Personalised Intake Process
Each resident is assessed individually so the program is tailored to their unique goals and circumstances.
Evidence-Based Approaches
Programs are delivered using evidence-based methods adapted to each participant's goals and support requirements.
Individualised Supports
Every resident receives support tailored to their unique needs, goals, and personal circumstances.
Employment Support
Helping residents find, prepare for, and maintain meaningful employment as a foundation for long-term independence.
Accommodation Assistance
Guidance and practical support to help residents transition into stable, long-term housing in the community.
Life Skills Development
Building everyday skills — cooking, budgeting, communication, and self-care — to support confident independent living.
Daily Living Support
Hands-on assistance with daily routines, personal care, and household tasks tailored to each resident's needs.
Community Connection
Encouraging meaningful participation in community activities, social groups, and local events to build belonging.
Live-In Support Worker
A dedicated live-in support worker provides ongoing guidance, structure, and mentoring throughout the program.
Employment, Skills & Community
Tiqvah House places a strong emphasis on meaningful employment, skill development, and community connection — recognising these as key foundations for long-term wellbeing and independence.
Participants develop the confidence, capacity, and practical skills needed to maintain a positive and independent lifestyle, supported by a live-in support worker and the wider Living Our Lives team.
Employment Pathways
We work with residents to identify employment goals, build workplace readiness, and connect with local employers and training opportunities.
Skill Building
From cooking and budgeting to communication and self-care, we build the practical skills that underpin independent living.
Community Belonging
We actively connect residents with local groups, activities, and events — fostering a genuine sense of belonging and purpose.
Community Jobs Program
Tiqvah House is available for smaller jobs that can typically be completed within 2–3 hours, including gardening, general maintenance, building flat packs, picking up and delivering items, and other practical odd jobs. Equipped with a ute and trailer, all work is carried out with the supervision and support of a mentor/support person.
These opportunities are designed to help participants learn new skills, build confidence, understand the value of earning an income, and work towards greater independence and self-sufficiency.
It's a win-win for everyone involved — participants gain valuable life and work skills, while the local community receives affordable, practical assistance. We would love referrals and support from the community, as the success of this program depends on the opportunities and jobs we are able to provide for participants.
