Working to End Homelessness

I am delighted to have approved development of further actions that will clearly get to the heart of the many reasons one is chronically unhoused, and aid families and individuals to access services that will change their lives, and their futures. By adopting policies that boost the effectiveness of existing programs we not only ease human suffering, we make the best use of our investment.
