Easy Read

Am I eligible to apply for long-term housing?

When assessing eligibility for long-term affordable housing, we look at factors such as:

Income assessment
Links to the local area (eg: family/friends/history)
Active Victorian Housing Register (VHR) application

How can I access long-term affordable housing?

By registering an application with the VHR and seeking support from Haven; Home, Safe.

Once you have successfully registered, we will be notified and will contact you via email when a suitable property becomes available.

If you need assistance with registering on the VHR, please fill out the contact form and we will arrange for one of our staff to call you.

Please note! Due to high demand, there can be significant waiting periods to get long-term housing.
