2015 Youth Homelessness Day

This project involved capturing the lead up to and the actual activities of the Youth Homelessness Matters Day. Over 26,000 young people aged between 12 and 24 are homeless in Australia however there are many more homeless youths whose statistics are not counted. As many young people "couch surf" (staying with a range of friends and relatives whilst living out of a backpack) they do not access services so become hidden statistics. Students undertaking a Diploma in Youth Work were involved in a couch convoy to raise community awareness of this situation.
