Abstract

OBJECTIVE: We report on the extent of veteran homelessness in Australia, what has already been done to address it and what actions are recommended to further improve the response.

CONCLUSIONS: Work conducted by not-for-profit organisations and the Department of Veterans' Affairs are outlined with positive prospects for significant coordinated action to further address the situation reported.
