Sustaining at-risk Indigenous tenancies - positioning paper
This study examines the role of tenancy support programs in assisting Indigenous households maintain their tenancies. It aims to improve our understanding of their operation and effectiveness in sustaining at-risk Indigenous tenancies. Knowledge of tenancy support programs, particularly those operating outside the public housing sector, is limited. The study will describe both mainstream and Indigenous-specific tenant support programs around Australia, outline how they operate, provide details on the representation of Indigenous people in these programs, describe the services that clients receive and assess their outcomes. The project will also provide evidence of what works and doesn’t work in terms of support services to Indigenous tenancies.
