Melbourne, VIC addresses challenges for the homeless population with Make Room initiative

Melbourne, VIC Make Room Homeless Challenges Initiative

In Progress

City officials approved Make Room in the face of housing limitations and a sizeable homeless population. A former utility building on Little Bourke Street will be converted into fully supported accommodations by 2023. Unison Housing was selected to handle the day-to-day operations of 50 studio apartments, community spaces, and on-site services. Each Make Room resident will receive personalized guidance toward permanent housing and social service providers.
