Spinoff - Telling What its Like for Renters

Submitted by tpa on February 28, 2018 - 8:46am

A brilliant piece from Spinoff telling it like it is for renters...again pushing security of tenure for renters and why it's important. This is stuff we have been saying for years and still tenants live in fear for a number of reasons this piece is well worth a look. Even if you are not a renter - you may gain some understanding of what it feels like for families and people living alone in rentals. 63% of rental households are families and 23.5% are people living alone.

Submitted by tpa on October 2, 2017 - 10:14am

TPA has long been advocating a "housing first" model of homelessness prevention. Get the housing right first, make it permanent and suitable. THEN bring in the services and supports to ensure the householder remains in place.
