Housing reforms and initiatives

Building Homes for NSW program

The NSW Government is making its largest-ever investment in social housing and homelessness with the $6.6 billion Building Homes for NSW package.

Building Homes for NSW will see us deliver thousands of new social housing properties, improve maintenance of public housing and boost homelessness support services. It will assist women and children escaping domestic violence, Aboriginal people and their families, older Australians, those living with disability and young people without family support.

NSW Homelessness Strategy

The vision of the draft NSW Homelessness Strategy 2025-2035 is to make NSW a place where homelessness is rare, brief and not repeated because people have a safe home and the support to keep it.

This Strategy builds on feedback from sector representatives, homelessness peaks, people with lived experience and government agencies. We’re developing Action Plans to achieve this vision, including standalone plans for Aboriginal people and children and young people.

Homes for NSW Plan

We’re developing a new 10-year Homes for NSW Plan to improve the social housing and homelessness system in NSW. Set for release in 2025, the Plan is being shaped by vital feedback from the sector, the community and people with lived experience. Together, we’re working to deliver better outcomes for those seeking housing and homelessness support.
