Housing and Homelessness Sector Training - Katherine

Working Together for Safer, Stronger Housing Pathways

This training has been designed specifically for housing and homelessness workers supporting people with complex mental health and alcohol and other drug needs.

Participants will strengthen their confidence and skills to respond in practical, culturally safe and trauma-informed ways, while reducing tenancy risks and supporting safer housing outcomes.

The training supports workers to:
Build mental health and AOD literacy
Understand trauma and its impact on behaviour and tenancy
Apply practical strategies for managing tenancy risk
Strengthen culturally safe engagement with clients and communities
Respond confidently to early warning signs and complex situations
Use scenario-based learning grounded in real housing practice
Access plain English tools and resources for everyday work

This package helps workers feel more equipped to have difficult conversations, maintain tenancies and support people to remain safely housed.
