The wellbeing program works across Loreto Community Housing and our partner agency St Joseph affordable homes to:
- Increase the wellbeing of participants and employees.
- Improve access and connection with relevant support services.
- Increase awareness of mental health and well-being, ensuring that these important topics are openly discussed, destigmatised, and integrated into our organisational culture.
The wellbeing program uses the social impact framework to inform practice and guide development and decision making.
The social impact approach is a person-centred model inspired by Catholic Social Teaching which values the dignity and worth of each person, working in solidarity for the common good, and giving preferential focus to those most in need (SIP 2017).
The approach recognises the interconnectedness of society which impacts on individual, family, and community wellbeing.
It identifies seven such ‘domains’, including education, safety, spirituality, health, economics, housing, and community engagement.
