Show Notes

Despite the current economic climate, Australia remains one of the most wealthy countries in the entire world, so why is it that the number of people who are homeless is continuing to increase?

The Quicky speaks to an expert in insecure housing in Australia, and hears from a woman whose family has been left without a home despite them all having jobs to find out what is causing such instability, and what can and should be done to help vulnerable people.
