Welcome to Radio COTA - Podcast 42 - Housing and Homelessness. Homelessness is on the rise in Australia, with a significant increase in homelessness in the over 55's age group expected over the coming decades. We explore the existence and causes of this wide-spread issue, chatting with Karyn Walsh, CEO of Micah Projects, who also shares information - and the wonderful outcomes - of the '500 Lives, 500 Homes' Campaign, breaking the cycle of homelessness for families, young people, and adults in our community. There's information on affordable housing options, through the National Rental Affordability Scheme (NRAS)and the regular 'What's On' segment for you to enjoy. So, grab a cuppa, sit back, relax and enjoy the latest from Radio COTA! We value your feedback and look forward to hearing more topic suggestions and ideas - contact us at radiocota@cotaqld.org.au
