Did you know that when someone finds themselves experiencing homelessness in Australia, there is government support available for supported temporary accommodation in most states.

However, for those people not eligible for government assistance due to their citizenship or visa status, it can be a particularly challenging time when life takes an unexpected turn.

Dignity’s new Ineligible for Government Housing Assistance (IHA) program is designed to support people experiencing homelessness where possible, regardless of their citizenship or visa status.

This support includes food relief, supported temporary accommodation and opportunities to participate in Dignity’s longer-term housing programs such as Ready To Work Housing.

Dignity currently supports three IHA residents in the Ready To Work Housing program.

This week, in partnership with NSW Department of Communities & Justice, we opened two new guest houses to support larger families experiencing homelessness in Southwest Sydney.

The demand for Dignity’s supported temporary accommodation is greater than ever right now and sadly, we turn away bookings every day because our homes are full on most nights.

With these two beautiful new homes, we will have the ability to support more families to find their way forward out of homelessness. In fact, the homes have been full since we opened the doors.

A big thank you to the team from Endeavour Energy who were on site to help with setting up the houses including the construction of many pieces of flat pack furniture.
