Receiving CRA helps families with their immediate day to day struggles with unaffordable rents. But new AHURI research reveals that for families, CRA can have benefits for children long into the future. The more CRA a family receives, the greater the likelihood of their children studying at university.

New AHURI research has identified priority locations for building ‘well located’ social housing. Well located homes are in places where tenants can easily access amenities including health care, schools, public transport and jobs.

The research mapped where social housing is located compared to local services across Australia.

When disasters strike, local governments play a crucial role in supporting affected communities, as they best understand the people and environments that have been harmed.
