Department of Family and Community Services wanted to showcases examples of good practice and collaboration across the housing and homelessness sector, and share the incredible work being done across NSW to improve the lives of those challenged by homelessness and access to housing, both within Communities and Justice and by their partners.
We worked with them to create “Through the Lens”, a series of stories of people who each overcame a range of challenges but are linked by one common cause – their need for a safe and secure home. Through these stories, we can see how finding a home helped each person in other areas of their lives. These include health, education, employment, safety and social outcomes.
Check out all six stories on:

And look out for the icons at the end of each story that show the outcomes our clients have achieved.
