Shelter WA believes that everyone has a right to a place to call home.
Shelter WA is the peak body in Western Australia for the community housing and homelessness sectors.
Our vision is that all people living in Western Australia have housing that enables them to thrive.
We want a society where everybody has a safe, secure, healthy, and an affordable place to call home, regardless of their life circumstances.
Having a place to call home is a basic human right. Housing unlocks opportunity, enhances health and wellbeing, provides access to educational and employment options. It enables people to fully participate in community life.
We understand issues through research, collaboration and engagement
We lead system reform through policy development advocacy, and strong representation.
We enable sector capacity through networks, training, resources, events and projects
We work with our members and key partners, to provide a strong voice and lead the development of an effective housing system
