“Affordable housing is everybody’s business. It impacts on the everyday lives of people and touches on every demographic group in our society, including children, single parents, youth, refugees and the aged. Further, it also has a negative impact on our national productivity and economy and goes against the national ethos of fair go that we all hold so dear. The housing crisis is too critical an issue to be overlooked and must be acted upon immediately. To this end, Anglicare Australia advocates for a national plan for affordable housing that is supported by all levels of government. This means a serious commitment to investment and infrastructure; guided by the social welfare sector and industry.”
