NSW is in a state of housing emergency. Frontline homelessness services are overwhelmed by people seeking help, as rental availability vanishes and the cost-of-living soars.

About a third of those who seek help from homelessness services report experiencing domestic violence, while half of those who need emergency or temporary accommodation cannot access it.

NSW is suffering from decades of social housing neglect. We need to build our way out of this crisis with at least 5,000 new social homes each year for the next decade. Read out pre-budget submission here: lnkd.in/gfKQc4ce

The NSW government must follow WA in boosting funding for frontline homelessness services that are at breaking point. One in two people who need help are being turned away. Services need a 20% funding boost, or $128 million, to continue operating. shelterwa.org.au/media-release-…

Everyone, regardless of their finances or support needs, deserves a place to call home. Social housing is a lifeline for those unable to afford private rents or who face other barriers. NSW needs to build at least 5,000 low-income homes each year. bit.ly/4derdbZ

Investing in social housing doesn’t just help people in need - it’s a smart financial decision and sound economic investment. We need the Commonwealth and NSW governments to each invest $1 billion per year over the next decade to build 50,000 new homes. bit.ly/4derdbZ

The NSW government cannot afford to put solving homelessness in the too-hard basket. Funding frontline services properly, and providing enough safe and stable housing, must be a top priority in this year’s budget. bit.ly/4derdbZ

Building well-designed social housing close to transport, schools, support services and employment will let people rebuild their lives, pursue education and job opportunities. bit.ly/4derdbZ

Social housing is a crucial lifeline for people who cannot afford the private market, including because of age, health or disability. Providing safe, secure and stable housing reduces pressure on the private market. bit.ly/4derdbZ

With the bulk of the government's social housing package reallocated from existing funding, a substantial and new funding injection is needed to turn the tide of the housing and homelessness crisis. ab.co/3JX7pfN
