EPIC - Empowering People in Care (Mayo)

EPIC provides an Advocacy Service to children and young people up to age 26 with care experience. Our purpose is to ensure that the views of the child or young person are represented and considered in matters relating to them. This includes issues relating to housing and homelessness. Our advocates can help you to understand what housing/homelessness supports you are entitled to, support you to access housing services and search for accommodation. A child or young person can request an EPIC advocate by completing the referral form on our website. The advocate will then reach out to arrange a meeting time or call. For general queries you can contact our office by phone or email.
