He had won about $2,000 on the poker machines that night. His killer followed him out of the last hotel where he was gambling and mugged him.

After 17 years of economic growth, homelessness in Australia remains unacceptably high.

Every night 100,000 Australians are homeless. Half are under 24 years old and 10,000 are children.1 There are some effective programs targeting people who are homeless, or at risk of homelessness, operating around Australia. They are not sufficient in number to have enough impact.
A new approach is required – one that brings people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness
from the margins in to the mainstream and provides them with opportunities the rest of us take for
granted – a good education, decent health care and a secure place to call home.
The new approach needs to be truly national. The best results require all levels of government
and service providers to commit to a joint effort. We also need to harness the contributions
and efforts of the business community.
