How close is homelessness to the everyday Australian?
New research commissioned by Orange Sky reveals that most Australians still don’t fully understand what homelessness looks like today.
Senior Operations Support Manager at Orange Sky, Loren Ayres, told Gary Hardgrave on 4CB Drive, “The majority of homelessness is hidden from Australians.”
“For most people, we really are only a couple of bad pieces of luck away from homelessness. When we hear about the rental crisis at the moment, having your lease not renewed, or a high increase in rent, or maybe becoming redundant, it only takes a few bad bouts of luck for the majority of people to not have access to safe, secure living.” Ayres continued.
