If you are currently homeless or at risk of homelessness, Sydney Homeless Connect can put you in touch with social and government organisations that can help you. These include crisis care, support and health services, employment assistance, housing assistance, financial assistance and legal services.

Sydney Homeless Connect cannot offer to be an agent ourselves (i.e. we cannot make applications on your behalf for housing, employment, etc.), but what we do is connect you with the people who can, or who can advise you on how to do it.

Sydney Homeless Connect Guide Book 2019

SHC Guide Book is a handy pocket sized booklet listing services and organisations that could be useful to you if you’re homeless or at risk of homelessness.
