The Australian Federation of Homelessness Organisations (AFHO) is the national peak body for homelessness in Australia.

The founding organisations Council for Homeless Persons Australia (CHPA), National Youth Coalition for Housing (NYCH), and Women's Services Network (WESNET) established AFHO with a joint vision to proactively research, develop and promote national policy and action to reduce homelessness and its impact upon the diverse range of people it affects.

All non-government organisations funded under the SAAP are required to participate in the SAAP National Data Collection.
