Webinar – Disability Inclusion Series no. 3: Housing, Homelessness and Community Supports

Local governments are often the most visible point of contact for people experiencing housing stress, homelessness and social isolation.

While councils do not control these systems, they play a critical role in shaping local responses and supporting inclusive communities.

This practical webinar will explore three key challenges facing councils today:

• Accessible and affordable housing for people with disability
• Clarifying roles in responding to and preventing homelessness
• Strengthening inclusive community supports and “third places” that enable connection, participation and wellbeing

Across all three challenges, the session will focus on practical actions councils can take to clarify their role, strengthen partnerships and move from response to prevention within existing constraints, with a strong focus on inclusion and intersectionality.

Join us to explore how local government can support dignity, inclusion and community wellbeing, while creating more resilient and connected communities for all.
