Everyone remembers ex-Prime Minister Bob Hawke’s promise that by 1990 no Australian Child will be living in poverty. However, 2017 about 17.4% of children under the age of 15 live below the poverty line.
Poverty is growing in Australia with an estimated 2.9 million people (13.3%) living below the accepted poverty line. This conference will delve into some of the reasons why disadvantage remains entrenched for some and also showcase various innovative programs helping to break the cycle.
Join us for the inaugural Community Relief & Resilience Conference hosted by WACOSS on 26 July 2017.
It will also be another important chance for you to network with others in the sector
