Please join our petition to the City of Greater Geelong.
There are over 7,000 households on priority applications on the Victorian Housing Register (VHR) in the Barwon broadbands. This petition is to support the urgency of building public and community housing, as housing ends homelessness. The Barwon Homelessness Network is seeking your support. Will you sign this petition?
