Federal Election Outcome

YWCA Australia congratulates the incoming Albanese Government on its election victory. 

Throughout our Safe Homes, Equal Futures campaign, we have engaged constructively across the political spectrum to highlight the urgent need for gender-responsive solutions to housing insecurity. Our focus has been on practical outcomes including increasing the supply of social and affordable housing, strengthening specialist services, and ensuring the housing system works for young women and gender-diverse people. 

The continuation of initiatives such as the Housing Australia Future Fund presents significant opportunities to deliver more housing in partnership with community housing providers, and to embed the supports needed to ensure long-term stability and safety for those most affected by the housing crisis. 

We look forward to working with the incoming government to turn commitments into action, delivering more homes, better services, and policy reform that supports equality and security for women, young people, and communities across Australia.
