On it’s worth remembering that the challenge is not solving homelessness… It is enabling the shared belief that together we can solve it!

As 2023 Queensland Women's Week draws to a close, we must not forget the single mothers and children living in dire poverty across Australia.

This must be fixed in the May budget. We must stop wilfully condemning single mothers to a life of poverty.

While our tax rules subsidise obscene accumulations of wealth through superannuation, unemployed single mums and their children are forced to live on a pittance.

Homelessness in Brisbane can and should be ended. This will require a continued commitment to coordination across organisations: a sharing of resources, risks, and rewards toward the vision of ending homelessness in Brisbane.

The Federal Government is set to cut $65 million dollars' worth of funding to homelessness services!

Why is this so important ⏳

Housing and homelessness services are already struggling to respond to everyone in need. Every single day, 288 people are turned away.

These critical services support people who are without a home or at risk of homelessness, including vulnerable people such as women and children escaping domestic and family violence.

If the Federal Government goes ahead and slashes $65 million worth of funding, then critical services will be closed, jobs across Australia will be cut and people in need will have less avenues for housing and support.
