Yfoundations 2025-2026 Federal Budget Response - Another missed opportunity to address child and youth homelessness
Yfoundations welcomes the Australian Government’s recent investment to increase crisis and transitional housing for young people experiencing homelessness and women and children fleeing domestic violence through the National Housing Infrastructure Facility. However, we saw no additional investment in Budget 2025–26 for youth homelessness services and youth housing models specifically designed to address the growing child and youth homelessness crisis across the nation.
