Kade's Story

Kade’s journey to independence hasn't always been easy.


At just 20, living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Kade faced challenges finding accessible housing. His previous apartment with his dad was unsafe, with daily tasks like using the bathroom becoming dangerous.


Desperate for a solution, Kade and his dad turned to Youngcare, where Kade found the home he always dreamed of. Thanks to Youngcare, Kade now has a newfound independence and is free to live the life he deserves.


With your support, more young Australians with complex and permanent disabilities can access homes like Kade's, where they can live, grow, and thrive.

"There’s not much I have control over but the choices I do make, they make me feel like I have control. To me that’s important.”

A Father's Perspective


Watching my son, Kade, struggle with his condition was heartbreaking. As his condition worsened, our apartment became increasingly unsafe, with simple tasks like getting out of bed becoming a daily struggle.


There were few options for accessible housing, and Kade’s first experience with Specialist Disability Accommodation left us feeling hopeless.


Then, Kade discovered Youngcare, offering him a home designed for his needs - a place where he could call home.
