New Help for Families Experiencing Homelessness to Secure Private Rentals

In Partnership with Homes NSW and NSW Government’s Homelessness Innovation Fund (HIF), Dignity’s new Transition To Lease Housing program is an innovative initiative designed to help families experiencing homelessness to secure private rental housing. Many families experiencing homelessness face barriers such as poor rental history, existing debts, or sudden life changes, which make it difficult to compete in the increasingly competitive rental market.

The Transition To Lease Housing program provides residents with a  leased home, complete with furniture and appliances, along with essential support and tenancy education to support families towards a transfer of lease during the 12-month program period.

Stable housing, tailored wrap-around support and tenancy education will provide families with the opportunity for long-term tenancy success, empowering them to end their homelessness.
