The Supported Accommodation Assistance Program (SAAP) is aimed at reducing homelessness in Australia. SAAP started in 1985 when Commonwealth and State/Territory funding programs were brought together. The object of the new arrangement was to grant financial assistance to the States to administer the SAAP program.^[1] These programs were aimed to provide transitional supported accommodation and related support services, in order to help people who were homeless to achieve the maximum possible degree of self-reliance and independence.^[1] Each of the states and territories runs a SAAP program,^[2] providing accommodation to 100,000 homeless Australians.

The SAAP programs are aimed at three levels of homeless people:

Primary Homeless: People without conventional accommodation, living on the streets

Secondary Homeless: People staying in boarding houses and people already in SAAP accommodation and other similar emergency accommodation services

Tertiary Homeless: People with no secure accommodation staying temporarily with friends or relatives in private dwellings ^[3]

In 2011, the Specialist Homelessness Services (SHS) program replaced the SAAP program.^[4]
