Letter From Rebecca Scott - July 2012

July 2012

Dear STREAT Customer

This last couple of weeks have been pretty big for us because our 5th class of young people have just graduated from STREAT. Over the last six months we’ve seen Adam, Ben, Amber, Aaron and Shae achieve amazing things. They’ve not only gained a Certificate II in Hospitality and great hospo skills in our cafes, but they’ve also addressed a whole range of personal issues head on. Issues that no Australian teenagers should ever have to grapple with. The great news though, that we’re now supporting and transitioning them into new jobs and further hospitality training.

Whilst you may not have got to know any of these extraordinary young people personally, you were part of their journey at STREAT. By your simple act of drinking our coffee and eating our meals you’ve helped provide their training and support. So on behalf of the whole STREAT team – THANK YOU for stopping youth homelessness one mouthful at a time.

With our gratitude and thanks

Bec Scott and Kate Barrelle
