National Homelessness Week is a chance to help people better understand homelessness, challenge misconceptions, share what works to address the issue, and highlight the experiences of local people who have lived through it.
From Monday 3-Sunday 9 August 2026, City of Port Phillip is offering free activities at St Kilda Library to help educate the community and encourage open and informed conversations.
