We have recently developed a set of NT Housing Fact Sheets which is now available for download as a pdf (15.8MB).  The Fact Sheets provide data on urban housing costs, vacancy rates, affordability, public housing and homelessness and the cover page offers an index to each of the 23 Fact Sheet pages.  The data is current to the March Quarter 2010.

Another new publication is our Who You Gonna Call booklet- a directory of support, accommodation and crisis services in the Darwin region.  Please contact NT Shelter to advise of any updates or corrections to the booklet.

NT Shelter has offices in Darwin and Alice Springs and we are in regular contact with Katherine and Tennant Creek.  Please contact us;
