Today is Youth Homelessness Matters Day and we join the call to make ending youth homelessness a national priority for federal and state governments 🗣🏠 One in five people supported by ac.care’s homelessness services in the Limestone Coast, Riverland or Murraylands is a child or young person (under the age of 25). Domestic and family violence, relationship or family breakdown and the housing crisis remain the top reasons for young people seeking assistance. In addition to our specialist homelessness services, ac.care also provides support for young people experiencing or at-risk of homelessness through programs like Reconnect Murraylands, which supports over 50 young people annually to prevent homelessness and reduce its impact through innovative prevention and early intervention initiatives. ac.care also provides housing and intensive support for up to eight young people (15-23) in the Murraylands through the innovative Studio Purpose project, which has transformed two disused duplexes into eight apartments through significant community collaboration and generous support. While we are committed to making a positive impact, more needs to be done to address the issue Australia-wide. National data from 2023-24 indicates: 🔹 10-24 year olds represent a quarter of the homeless population in Australia 🔸 Over a third of young people (15-25 years) presenting to homelessness services report experiencing some form of domestic and family violence 🔹 Almost half the young people (15-24 years) presenting alone had a mental health concern 🔸 Young people are more likely to couch surf, which makes them vulnerable to servitude, exploitation and abuse Visit www.yhmd.org.au and sign the petition to end youth homelessness and call for national and state governments to make ending youth homelessness a national priority by developing a targeted plan and funding the services needed to achieve this objective. #accare #homelessness #YHMD25 💙🧡

Happy Harmony Week! 🧡🌏🥳 This annual celebration recognises the diversity of Australians from all different backgrounds, which is reflected in the communities we support and live in across the Limestone Coast, Riverland, Murraylands, Adelaide Hills and Fleurieu Peninsula. From First Nations People – part of the oldest continuous culture in the world – to new arrivals from overseas, Australia’s multicultural makeup is part of our national identity. In fact, almost half of Australians were either born overseas or have a parent who was born overseas. That is why it is important we use this week to reflect on our own role in encouraging and fostering inclusiveness, respect and belonging for all Australians, regardless of cultural or linguistic background. A simple way to show your support for cultural diversity and an inclusive Australia this week is to wear orange. 🧡Why orange?🧡 The colour signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect. More broadly, use this week to consider how you can listen, learn and act to challenge racism, to contribute towards a fair and equal society, and celebrate the diversity that continues to enrich our nation. #HarmonyWeek #ItStopsWithMe #EveryoneBelongs #accare
