The Home and Community Care (HACC) Program is a joint Australian, State and Territory Government initiative to help people in need. The NSW Department of Ageing, Disability and Home Care administers the HACC Program in NSW. The program helps frail older people and people with a disability who would otherwise be prematurely or inappropriately admitted to residential care to live independently in their own home.
