This refers to a property that existing Orana Support case managed clients have the opportunity to move into when they are ready to trial living independently. This is a 3-month lease only. During that time the client works with their Case Manager to secure a long term lease on a property (private rental) which they will live in as independents – from that point, there will be minimal interaction with case manager.
