Addressing the needs of those experiencing homelessness

Target 6

Those experiencing homelessness and those exiting homelessness with physical health, mental health, and alcohol and other drug use dependence needs will have their needs addressed. This will result in a halving of mortality rates among those who have experienced homelessness and a halving in public hospital costs one year on for those exiting homelessness

Figure 6.1 demonstrates that there has been a large decline in the 2020/21 period – which saw only 40.1% of all individuals accessing Specialist Homelessness Services ending their support periods with their immediate needs and goals met. This is below projected targets, indicating a need for greater and sustained focus on understanding and addressing the complex needs of Specialist Homelessness Services clients.
