Rental stress, housing insecurity, & homelessness shouldn't be our future. The federal govt must #BuildSocialHousing to ensure everyone can afford a safe, decent place to call home. Read the People’s Commission's final report here👉everybodyshome.com.au/peoples-commis… @DougCameron51
Check out this excellent story by @PatsKarvelas about the ambition and commitment to tackling the big issues driving homelessness expressed by @ClareONeilMP at the launch of Homelessness Week. #HW2024 #endhomelessness abc.net.au/news/2024-08-1…
This #HomelessnessWeek we’re shining a light on stories shared at the People’s Commission into the Housing Crisis. We must use their voices to take collective action 🏘️ Sign our petition today: everybodyshome.com.au/end-homelessne… #HW2024
That feeling when you wake up and @chrishemsworth is calling on leaders to be heroes to #endhomelessness. You're a legend. Love your work!! #HW2024 canberratimes.com.au/story/8716407/…
Heading to Sydney to launch #HW2024 tomorrow. Tune in to @abcnews #AM tomorrow morning to catch me talking about child and family #homelessness and what’s needed to end it.
Thank you @DavidPocock it’s time @AustralianLabor housing crisis to support and fund our housing and homeless national peaks!! You need them to co design policy and deliver the best outcomes across the country @NationalShelter @CHIA_News @ColvinKate @SatPaper
Failing to restore funding for @HomelessnessAus & @NationalShelter in the middle of a housing crisis risks losing key data & advocacy we need more than ever. I urge govt to reconsider support to ensure they can survive & keep doing their invaluable work. thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politics/…
This is awful. Such sad news.
This is what we mean when we say homeless is harmful. It is literally deadly.
It breaks our hearts to see sector leaders like Emma from @NationalShelter & Kate from @HomelessnessAus undertake vital analytical, collaborative, conduit & systemic advocacy work on the national stage - with $0 funding from #Auspol in a #housingcrisis Platitudes don't pay bills
Without secure, sustainable funding from government to undertake our work National Shelter may be looking at a different form in 2025. See loom.ly/WqVPTCQ
The futures of @HomelessnessAus and the Whitlam-era @NationalShelter are becoming more uncertain in a Coalition-era funding squeeze that, to the surprise of advocates, continues under Labor. thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/politics/… via @SatPaper 🖊️ @KJBar

For the last two days, @_EverybodysHome has been convening hearings as part of our People’s Commission into the Housing Crisis. They’ve been moving, upsetting, and infuriating 🧵
Thanks to @JEChalmers for fronting up to the @ACOSS post-Budget event and continuing the dialogue about the need to #RaisetheRate. We all think you need to do more, but good to be talking.
Four powerful stories from women sharing what the housing crisis has meant for them and their children at the @_EverybodysHome People’s Commission. Heartbreaking. #BuildSocialHousing
"Why haven't you looked at increasing JobSeeker? @ColvinKate said that would be the single most effective way of helping women in abusive relationships" Gallagher: "Those payments are indexed" it's depraved to spruik regular CPI indexing as doing something on women's violence
Increasing income support is essential to reduce growing homelessness. Catch the story on @abcnews #RaiseTheRate m.youtube.com/watch?v=Heub8y…
I’m here at @abcnews talking about the need to #RaiserheRate so people can afford rent and avoid homelessness.
More than 200 women leaders have written to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese urging him to provide economic security for women leaving violence by raising the rate of Jobseeker and Youth Allowance. Read more: acoss.org.au/media-releases…
