The Alliance
Since 2016, we have supported individuals, organisations, governments and local communities to work collaboratively across sectors to end homelessness – not just for individuals, but for whole communities.
Specifically, we aim to prevent, reduce and end homelessness by ensuring that everyone has access to the housing and support they need, so that any future incidents of homelessness are rare, brief and once-off. This is how we define an end to homelessness.
Our Charter
Our Strategy
We have developed a Strategy for achieving an end to homelessness in Western Australia, which reflects all the things that are needed to support this goal. It continues to change and evolve as the complex problem that is homelessness changes. Our Strategy sets out the five strategic challenges that we need to work through: housing, prevention, a collaborative approach, data and research and community capacity building.
Our Strategy
Advance to Zero
In support of our Strategy, we have a number of strategic initiatives. This includes WA Advance to Zero, which seeks to demonstrate that ending homelessness is possible – one community at a time, starting with rough sleeping and chronic homelessness.
Advance to Zero
Our partners
We are governed by an Annual Partners Meeting which meets once a year and appoints an Alliance Steering Committee, which oversees the day-to-day governance and coordination of our work. Our day-to-day operations are supported by Shelter WA and the Australian Alliance to End Homelessness (AAEH).
