Homelessness Contacts

In 2012 the NSW Government introduced the Protocol for Homeless People in Public Places. We have adopted the protocol to help ensure homeless people are treated respectfully, appropriately and are not discriminated against. Homeless people have the same right as everyone else to use public places. If you see someone sleeping rough or are in need of assistance,  you can contact the NSW Government Outreach Team via email: isdassertiveoutreach@facs.nsw.gov.au or Council on 4221 6111. 

If you're homeless or at risk of homelessness, Wollongong Homeless Hub & Housing Services can provide assistance and advice. Phone: 4228 0955

Link2Home is a state-wide telephone service that provides information, assessment and referral to specialist homelessness services, temporary accommodation and other supports for people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Link2Home can be contacted on 1800 152 152.
