Youth homelessness remains a significant issue in our state.

The dire shortage of social and affordable housing in NSW restricts young people’s options, trapping them in housing insecurity and further homelessness.

Australia’s rental affordability has plummeted & regional towns are at the centre of the rental affordability crisis with a 21.7% increase on asking rent in the Central Tablelands over the last year. We need more social and affordable housing in our region, now!

[Yfoundations @Y_FOUNDATIONS]

Last year, around 23,000 children and young people aged 12 to 25 sought help from homelessness services in NSW. Most turned up alone.

There must be sufficient support in all phases for our children and young people to exit out of homelessness.

"The recent property boom and the ensuing lack of rental properties, caused by an influx of people moving out of cities and into rural and regional areas, is driving a rise in homelessness."
