70 Years of Homefulness

Hutt St Centre is a place of connection and support, where people facing homelessness are empowered to rebuild their lives, rediscover their identities and reconnect with those who love them.

We walk alongside people on their journey toward homefulness—a word used to describe the feeling of safety, control and confidence that comes with having a place to call home.

When people walk through the doors at the Hutt St Centre, the team help fulfil their immediate needs, like a shower, a meal, and a charged phone, while 20+ visiting services provide support ranging from medical check-ups to financial counselling.

And with a focus on the future, the centre connects people with housing, education and employment opportunities to build the skills and confidence to change their circumstances for good.

The Hutt St Centre believes in a society that grants all people an equal chance to live a full life. And until that happens, Hutt St Centre will continue to be the voice for systematic change. Through their active advocacy, their fundraising initiatives, their unrelenting support and their culture of ingrained respect, they are bringing an end to the injustice seen in our city.
