AB  - This report looks at the immediate and long-term issues facing homeless mothers, their children and those who experienced homelessness as a child. Conducted through an in depth review of existing studies, a series of qualitative interviews with Wesley Mission clients and a policy and practice workshop, the report has resulted in a concise document that captures current experience with onward recommendations.
Homelessness affects the whole family and often leads to a lifetime of repeat occurrences. Over 17 per cent of Australia’s homeless are under the age of 12 (ABS Census 2011).
