At a time when homelessness, and particularly youth homelessness, is a major national priority, it was exciting for Anglicare WA and Parkerville Children and Youth Care to jointly host a major seminar with three of Australia’s leading experts in this area.

The one day seminar was proudly supported by the Anglican Diocese of Perth as the last activity of its 150th birthday celebrations.

Presentations from the three keynote speakers are available below:

Tony Nicholson,   Executive Director of the Brotherhood of St Laurence & Chair of the Federal Government’s White Paper Homelessness Steering Committee.

David MacKenzie,   Associate Professor at the Institute for Social Research & member of the National Youth Commission Inquiry into Youth Homelessness.

Eliminating Youth Homelessness by the year 2030

Wendy Malycha,   CEO of St John’s Youth Services, Adelaide SA.
