The document outlines a national approach to reducing homelessness in Australia. It acknowledges that homelessness has increased in recent years and identifies key pathways that can lead to homelessness. The vision is for fewer people to experience homelessness and for those who do to quickly access support and stable housing. Key strategies include intervening early to prevent homelessness, improving and expanding services, and breaking the cycle of homelessness by addressing its underlying causes. The document details plans for cooperation across different levels of government and sectors to implement these strategies between 2020.
