Working together to support young people

Ballarat Community Health (BCH) has strengthened its commitment to supporting young people experiencing or at risk of homelessness by bringing its youth housing and homelessness services together under one roof with headspace Ballarat.

The new co-location creates a collaborative and community‑focused space where young people can access integrated support across housing, health and wellbeing—making it easier to get the right help, in the right place, at the right time.

Youth Housing

The BCH youth housing and homelessness team provides a range of programs designed to support young people aged 15–25 who are experiencing homelessness or facing housing instability. Services now delivered from the co‑located site include

• Youth Specialist Homelessness Support
• Specialist case management and support for young people experiencing homelessness or at risk.
