News: Unaffordable homes sees homeless rise

Postby Noel Tudball » Tue Apr 18, 2017 12:57 am


"MORE than 1200 people were counted as homeless across the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula council areas in the 2011 census.
That’s six years ago, but, sadly, the number has “increased dramatically since then”, Council to Homeless Persons CEO Jenny Smith said.
More than 2000 people sought help from homelessness services on the Mornington Peninsula last year alone. And 1807 people are waiting for public housing in Frankston."
