Veterans Homelessness Program
Housing / Shelter and Veteran Services
Provided by John Howard Society of Victoria
Serves veterans who are currently experiencing homelessness or who are at risk of homelessness.
The Veterans Homelessness Program provides comprehensive support to veterans experiencing or at risk of homelessness, with a strong focus on mental health and medical care. The program focuses on individualized support services to help improve integration and connectedness to support structures, such as housing attainment, rental assistance, basic needs and counselling/treatment. They offer one-to-one navigation support and access to a part-time in-house counsellor with the goal of supporting veterans in rebuilding their lives by connecting them with essential healthcare resources and personalized support to address their unique needs.
