Brisbane City Council and Volunteering Queensland partner with more than 300 dedicated volunteers each year to deliver Homeless Connect. Be part of the next event on Wednesday 13 May 2026.
About
In a one-stop-shop environment, guests have access to medical, employment, housing and legal services, as well as clothing and footwear, food, bedding, toiletries and more. Guests at the event are also invited to enjoy professional personal care services such as haircuts and grooming.
With vital services offered and a day of fun activities and entertainment, Homeless Connect treats guests with dignity and grace while boosting their self-esteem. This important and unique event drives human connection and reduces barriers between the community and guests.
Volunteers have been the backbone of Homeless Connect and to date have helped more than 20,000 people connect with services that would have otherwise been out of reach.
