Homelessness Action Now
Every day, thousands of Victorians are experiencing homelessness - couch surfing, sleeping in cars, or one bill away from losing their home.
This Homelessness Week (3–9 August 2026), we are shining a light on how St Vincent de Paul Society Victoria is creating pathways out of homelessness and preventing it for good. Here's what's driving it, and how you can help.

Stories that matter.
