Brett Goring

Peer Navigator, St Patricks Community Support Centre

My name is Brett Goring, My mother is a Yamatji women from Geraldton. My father is English/Scottish.

I was born in Perth Boorloo which is located on Whadjuk Noongar Country. I’ve had quite a colourful life with colourful experiences. More negative than positive.

There has been a substantial amount of time where I was stuck in victim mode. Over the last couple of years, I have become a survivor.

My life’s challenges have led to LE Profession. I am now currently employed as a Lived Experienced Peer Navigator with Djenabidet Kalleep. To go from homelessness to now being able to navigate my mob out of homelessness is a massive privalige.
