Head Leasing Services
We provide a range of services to assist people to access subsidised private rental across metropolitan Melbourne.
The program provides support to four groups: adults and families who are economically vulnerable, young people at risk of homelessness who have intersected with the criminal justice system, women and their children escaping family violence, and people who have experienced chronic or repeated homelessness. The services we offer in this area are listed below.
