Two damning statistics reveal a contradiction at the heart of Australia's housing crisis - and a potential solution. The discrepancy has brought together community housing providers and property developers, who see it as an opportunity to provide homeless Australians with safe, secure housing. Property owners don't have to become social workers under the proposal, according to an organiser. "Every vacant property represents another opportunity to support people and create housing outcomes while longer-term solutions are being planned, funded, and delivered." "There is no single solution to the housing crisis, and we should be pursuing every opportunity to help people access safe, secure housing," she said.
