Both companies are not-for-profit community housing providers, registered charities and are public companies limited by guarantee. Both are Tier 2 providers under the National Regulatory System for community housing providers.

Salvation Army Housing operates as a single organisation with a common Board and management, in all states and territories. Combined, we manage over 1900 properties around Australia.

We also work with a range of community, government and non-government agencies to support housing tenants.
