The Murrumbidgee Mental Health and Drug and Alcohol Alliance is leading a project to learn more about young people’s experiences of housing, homelessness and support services across the Murrumbidgee.

We want to hear from young people, carers and frontline workers to understand what is working well, where there are gaps, and what can make it easier to get support. The project will explore how young people use housing services, mental health and alcohol and other drugs supports, crisis and community services.

What we learn will be used to improve how services work together, make support easier to access, and get people to the right person or service. The project will also make sure services keep learning from young people.

• Has there been a time where you were unsure of where you were going to sleep for the night or where your home may be?
• Has there ever been a time where you were unsure how you pay for your next meal, phone credit or rent?
• Have you ever been worried that the people caring for you would not be able to provide shelter, a place to sleep or food?
