Housing & Homelessness 

Working Out of Homelessness Report 

2001 

The development of an innovative education and employment program for homeless single men and women in inner Sydney.

The emphasis has been on providing services, that will enable homeless people to maintain a tenancy either in public, private, or community housing. Education and employment in this context have generally been given a low priority by crisis accommodation services for single men and women. When programs have been developed they have been mainly of the 'living' skills or recreational variety.
