Behind every homelessness statistic is a person, a family, a story, says Alisi Tutuila. First Nations homelessness has roots in colonisation, systemic discrimination and intergenerational trauma, and mainstream services often miss the mark by focusing on individuals instead of community and kinship.

A young person shared their experience of the care system: a lack of stability, limited mental health support, and feeling unheard. Young people deserve safe housing, real support, connection to family and culture, and a genuine voice in decisions that shape their lives. They are not case numbers. They are kids who deserve dignity.

Two days in Darwin at the Australian Homelessness Conference, and what a pleasure it was.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by the ahi: stand in the Networking and Exhibition precinct. It was great to connect with fellow housing professionals, meet new faces and catch up with familiar ones from across the sector.

Thank you also to AHURI and the conference organisers for such a valuable two days.

Here are a few moments from the event.
