Fiona York, Executive Officer of Housing the for the Aged Action Group, gives evidence to The Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality & Safety about the obstacles facing older people who are homeless or at risk of homelessness to accessing Aged Care.

Member and former HAAG client Jenny talked to ABC News about her experience becoming homeless and sleeping in her car.

HAAG is working with our partners at Val's LGBTI Ageing and Aged Care and Switchboard on a project to raise awareness about older LGBTI housing issues.

The video includes recent data on the prevalence of homelessness for older people, what to look out for and when to refer to our Assistance with Care and Housing program.  

If an assessor sees an older person who is living in private rental, they are likely to be at risk. Being single and female increases their risk. By linking them with a support service like the ACH program we can prevent people from falling into a housing crisis.
