Veteran Housing Australia (VHA), established by Carry On, is a dedicated not-for-profit organisation providing affordable housing to veterans and their families. We exist to ensure every veteran has a safe place to call home and the foundation to build a secure future.
Our Vision
To end veteran homelessness in Australia and empower every veteran to rebuild, thrive, and succeed.
Our Mission
To provide safe, affordable housing for veterans and their families experiencing housing stress, creating stability from which they can thrive.
Why Housing Matters
A safe home is more than just shelter — it is the foundation for wellbeing. Secure housing supports sustained employment, strengthens social inclusion, and improves both physical and mental health outcomes.
Sadly, many who have served our country with distinction face challenges transitioning to civilian life. Veterans are significantly overrepresented in Australia’s homeless population, making the need for dedicated housing solutions urgent and critical.
Our Commitment to Veterans
At VHA, we’ve developed Client Promises that shape how we deliver services and ensure the voices of veterans remain central to everything we do. Through ongoing feedback from the veteran community, we strive to continually improve our support.
Our Client Promises:
- Direct Support: Veterans can reach us easily through a dedicated communication line, with every enquiry receiving a clear outcome.
- Affordable, Quality Housing: We ensure accommodation is safe, accessible, and affordable for those who need it most.
- Honesty and Transparency: We provide clear, open information about our housing and the support available.
- Property Care: We maintain our homes to high standards, ensuring they remain safe, comfortable, and in good order.
- Privacy and Respect: We guarantee confidentiality and dignity for all who use our services.
