About Homelessness Week?
Get Involved
Homelessness Week is a national event, with events held across Australia during the first full week in August.
This year, Homelessness Week will be held from Monday 4th- Sunday 10th of August 2025.
Tasmania is experiencing a housing crisis. From 2016 to 2021 the rate of homelessness in Tasmania increased by 45%.
Events will be held right across Tasmania throughout Homelessness Week. Information will be added as events are announced, but you can stay up to date with what’s happening in Homelessness Week (and the housing and homelessness sector) by subscribing to Shelter Tas’ eNews, or reading Shelter Tas’ media release for Homelessness Week.
Make sure you lend your support to the Everybody’s Home Campaign petition this Homelessness Week, calling on Treasurer Jim Chalmers to invest in social housing and an increase in Commonwealth Rent Assistance. Go to the Everybody’s Home website or view the listing in the events calendar below.
