I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
The McGowan government is committed
to breaking the cycle of homelessness and is working closely with our community sector partners to deliver a range of
services to those in need. The Department of Communities works with a number of community organisations to provide a range
of specialist homelessness services including accommodation services,
meals and day centres that provide people who are homeless with crisis and
transitional accommodation and/or meals, access to shower and laundry
facilities, and the opportunity to connect with support services.
