The Collie Transitional Accommodation Service has been established to support local residents when they need it most.
It comes in response to the community's need for emergency housing, and can accommodate two families, or up to six adults, across two Department of Communities properties.
One property will be used for short-term emergency housing, while the other will provide clients with transitional accommodation.
The service will be operated by crisis care provider Accord West, who also offer support services assisting people to overcome barriers faced when securing long-term accommodation.
They will also work within the local community with other service providers to maximise available resources for people experiencing homelessness in Collie.
Collie-Preston MLA Mick Murray said he was thrilled the government delivered on the important commitment.
"This transitional housing will be made available to the most vulnerable members of the Collie community in emergency situations," he said.
"I have personally seen the impact that homelessness and family and domestic violence has had on the Collie community, and have been pushing for extra assistance with temporary housing for people who are trying to get back on their feet.
"While we would prefer for members of the community to not need this emergency accommodation, more support will now be available in town for those facing crisis situations than ever before."
