Youth Homelessness
April 9, 2008 at 2:12 pm | In Around the Nation, Articles, Media |With the release of the Youth Homelessness report there have been quite a few discussions and debates across the media in relation to tackling this issue.
Also, The Oasis, a documentary on this subject will be shown on ABC tomorrow night looks to be very interesting and although it won’t look at foster care specifically, many of the issues that put families and individuals at risk of child protection concerns also increase risks of homelessness. The accompanying website is also worth exploration.
While on the subject of national issues, perhaps this report is opportunistic in it’s timing with the 2020 Summit including a forum on “Strengthening Communities, Supporting Families and Social Inclusion”.
