The homelessness explosion in Australia, and doing something about it

Friday, 18 March 2022 - 10:00am to 10:30am

Jennifer talks with Kate Colvin from the Everybody’s Home campaign about the housing affordability crisis in Australia, which has very much gone mainstream as more and more people become homeless. The Everybody's Home campaign is asking the federal government to commit to building 25,000 new social homes every year.  

Kate invites listeners to join the campaign for everyone to have a home:

Friday 10:00am to 10:30am
