It will be an an opportunity for local services to network with workers who are on the frontline of the homelessness crisis and be provided with information on current services available in the Lithgow area.
Homelessness Week is a nation-wide campaign that aims to raise awareness of how and why people become homeless and the effect on individuals and the community as a whole.
This year's theme is 'Housing ends homelessness'. This supports LCP's view that the housing affordability crisis in NSW has created a dire shortage of affordable options for people on very low incomes.
