Ending homelessness: one person, one family at a time.
The rate of homelessness is rapidly rising, globally, and here in Brisbane.
Now, with a lack of social housing, unaffordable rents and mortgages, and an astronomical cost of living, many in our community are finding themselves without a home, or struggling to stay housed.
If this is you, we're the people to call.
We can connect you with practical assistance and pathways to sustainable solutions according to your needs and circumstances.
Support is available 24/7. Our services are free.

Micah Projects Housing and Homelessness Services
Homelessness is solvable
People don't choose to experience homelessness — it finds them, often when economic hardship collides with personal adversity, such as illness, injury, post-traumatic stress, violence and relationship breakdown.
No one should walk this path alone. Together, we can create a future where homelessness is rare, brief, and non-recurring.
A Housing First approach prioritises access to permanent housing and linked support to meet people's immediate needs, and aims to prevent homelessness wherever possible.
Evidence shows this restores hope and dignity, and empowers people to overcome cycles of homelessness.
I have a key for my own place. A place I can truly call mine. If it rains I don’t get wet. I can come and go whenever I want. And when I come home everything is still here. I absolutely love this place. I’d still be on the street, cold, wet and miserable if it wasn’t for Micah Projects. Now I try to find my own small ways to give back by telling people I know who are homeless or couch surfing how Micah Projects can help them.
