Homeless Services

When a person slides into homelessness, almost every other problem in their life deteriorates - whether it's substance abuse, mental health, relationship breakdowns or problems with the law. For many caught up in homelessness, Wesley Mission programmes provide the stability and security they need to begin to address the areas in their life that have contributed to the problem.

Counselling

The impact of homelessness is far-reaching.

Wesley's counselling is far-reaching too turning lives around with a compassionate approach that always respects the dignity of the individual.

Crisis accommodation

Wesley has served Sydney's single adult homeless since 1812, and homeless families since 1986. People can turn to Wesley for immediate shelter and food right through to longer-term case management.

Drop In Centres

"They got me off the street by caring, listening, helping me set goals."

People living from day to day on the street, staying with friends, in squats and sleeping on trains, need somewhere they can just 'drop in' for advice, companionship and referral - help from people who really listen and care.
