Helping Hands
Want to find long term housing?
Helping Hands is a service for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Northern Rivers region who are homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless.
If you have nowhere to live or need to move out of your home soon and have not found another place to live, Helping Hands can support you.
We will work with you to find stable housing that you can afford, either in your current home or by finding you a new one.
We provide up to 12 months of case management to support you and your family.

- Identifies as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander.
- Is over 16 years of age.
- Has nowhere to live or has to move out of their home with no other housing options.
