They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning
We will remember them.
Lest we forget.

We pause today to honour and remember those who have sacrificed for our country, and thank those who continue to serve. We also recognise that Defence Force personnel, veterans and their families are at a higher risk of experiencing homelessness.

We thank the many organisations and agencies who work with veterans and families in providing housing support, and specialised holistic services to reduce their risk of insecure housing and prevent homelessness.

Every young person deserves a place to call home

Youth Homelessness Matters Day is an important moment each year to come together as a community, listen deeply and stand alongside young people experiencing homelessness.

This year we invite you to join us for a special gathering that centres the voices of young people with lived and living experience. Together we will screen the powerful short documentary A Place To Call Home, hear reflections from young people and create space for conversation, connection and action.

There will also be creative, interactive activities, lunch and free haircuts for young people aged 12–25 years. Youth workers are warmly encouraged to attend with the young people they support.

Everyone is welcome — young people, youth workers, community members and allies who care about ensuring every young person has a place to call home. Come along, listen, learn and stand alongside young people in our community.
