Building together, and for each other.

Thursday 27 – Friday 28 November

The Victorian Homelessness Conference is a not-to-be-missed event for practitioners, policy makers, those with lived experience of homelessness, and anyone else committed to ending homelessness in Victoria.

Over two packed days of panels and workshops, you’ll learn about the latest research and practice innovations, exchange ideas, explore new challenges and new possibilities for collaboration and, together, help shape a better future.

We have lots of registration options available, including on demand viewing of main hall sessions and $10 lived experience tickets – and as always great discounts for CHP members. Early bird registrations are also available till 5pm on Friday 31 October, so book now for extra savings.

If you have lived experience of homelessness and live outside Ballarat, stay tuned as we work on securing a travel & accommodation fund to support you attending the Conference. We hope to bring you more news soon.

Building together, and for each other.

Victoria’s homelessness crisis has reached unprecedented levels, and ending it will take an all-of-society partnership. The homelessness sector must come together with intersecting sectors, lived experience experts, state and federal governments, local councils, the business sector, philanthropy and the general public to: 

  • improve understanding of the nature of homelessness – and how to end it;
  • find innovative new collaborations that improve outcomes for people experiencing or at risk of homelessness; and
  • rally a statewide call for urgent change.

This year’s Conference theme, Building together, and for each other is a starting point to explore new potential partners in the work to end homelessness, and new ways we can collaborate. To consider the power of coalitions, while also respecting and committing ourselves to the unique needs of different cohorts and regions.
