Homelessness Week 2026: 3-9 August

Homelessness Australia coordinates Homelessness Week each year to build community support and drive government action to end homelessness.

Across Australia, homelessness services and community organisations hold events, engage the media and take action to raise awareness of homelessness, highlight the solutions that work, and call for the change needed to ensure everyone has a safe and secure home.

The theme for Homelessness Week 2026 is Homelessness Action Now — because we know what works. Now we need action at the scale and urgency the crisis demands.

Homelessness Week: In conversation with Minister Clare O'Neil

This Homelessness Week, join Homelessness Australia for a national conversation about what's next in Australia's efforts to prevent and end homelessness. We're delighted to welcome Minister for Housing and Homelessness Clare O'Neil for an in-person conversation with Homelessness Australia CEO Kate Colvin.
