CHVL provides both long term housing, transitional housing and a range of homelessness services for people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness in the Eastern Metropolitan region and Gippsland. We provide long-term secure rental tenancies for people who pay subsidised market rate*. (Please refer to the CHL Rent Setting Policy for more information.) Forty percent of our portfolio is rented by people living with disabilities. Forty seven percent for all nominating agencies are those who work with people living with a disability. CHVL continues to work with aboriginal communities, providing nine percent of its total stock to Aboriginal families. As an alternative to private rental, our services ensure that people who have low incomes can find a dependable housing arrangement so their children can attend the local school, the parent or parents can maintain employment or study, and the family can generally have enough money to live on. We have six offices throughout the state being Melbourne CBD, Blackburn, St Kilda, Bendigo, Ballarat, Bairnsdale and Morwell. For complete list of our office locations click here.

CHVL’s success in delivering sustainable and positive outcomes for its renters and building stronger communities is only possible by working collaboratively with our many partner agencies. CHVL currently has over 30 formal partnerships in place in Victoria. Our partnership agreements vary in type and nature but generally CHVL provides or manages the housing in which the partner agency provides the support for varying client needs or programs.
