About
Wombat Housing and Support Services
Wombat Housing and Support Services
provides services to people who are homeless
or at risk of becoming homeless in the West
of Melbourne.
Wombat has programs for young
people, older
adults, families, single
adults and people in public housing.
Wombat also delivers SHASP in the West, the Social Housing Advocacy and Support Program for people in public housing.
Many other organisations
also
use Wombat’s services.
Services provided through our programs include
support services, housing services and material
aid.
Wombat has a voluntary Board
of Management that sets its strategic direction,
a paid staff group which delivers its services,
a Program Manager who oversees the Programs
and a CEO who is responsible for the operations
of the organisation.
Wombat is a not for profit community based organisation
that is an incorporated association registered
in Victoria. Wombat is a Public Benevolent Institution
and therefore donations to Wombat are tax deductible.
Wombat is based in North
Melbourne but much of its work is delivered
through an outreach model - Wombat goes where
it’s needed and where it suits the people
who use its services.
Wombat also runs the Secretariat for the North and West Homelessness Network.
