The DSS website includes information on emergency financial assistance, material aid (like food and clothing), national helplines, and a directory of funded organisations providing Emergency Relief across Australia.

If you have any questions or require assistance in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to contact us at ssier@ssi.org.au 

A personal or financial crisis can make it hard for a vulnerable individual to pay for the essentials of life. The Department of Social Services funds SSI to provide emergency relief services to people in the Logan and Ipswich areas of Southern Queensland who are experiencing financial distress or hardship and have limited means or resources.

Forms of support can include food and fuel vouchers, part payment of bills, food parcels and clothing, budgeting assistance, and referrals to other support services. We complete more intensive referrals for people with complex needs.
