About St Pat’s

St Pat’s is a not-for-profit organisation which provides community housing and specialist support services for people facing homelessness.

We have been working side-by-side with vulnerable people in the south metropolitan region of Perth for 50 years. Our targeted services are aimed at people aged 16 and over, including couples and families, who are experiencing rough sleeping or significant disadvantage.

To achieve our mission to end chronic homelessness we work in partnership with government and human services agencies, businesses, and the broader community, to provide a range of high-quality services delivered to break the cycle of poverty and disadvantage, including housing, health, crisis intervention and emergency relief, social inclusion and specialist support services.

St Pat’s understands that every person is unique and comes with their own story and personal journey that has led them to experience some degree of homelessness. Recognising this, we provide support at multiple levels and our professional staff work with people to build on their strengths and resilience to help them rebuild their lives, thrive and return to independent living.
