Burwood, NSW Homelessness Assistance Card Program

City staffers involved with the program provide cards with contacts for social services to homeless residents. Each card comes with a $5 AUD payphone card and a $10 AUD transit card that reduce barriers to assistance. Council leaders are training staff to focus card delivery on homeless residents who request assistance or require immediate help.
