This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Set up long term programmes and schemes to help homeless people.
In our citizenship class we have been set with a project to target a variety of issues which have either been disdained or excluded by the government and society. We have chosen the controversial issue of homelessness because to us we think it is a very important issue.
More details
Many people have stereotypical views towards homeless people such as they're homeless because of drugs and alcohol or they couldn't be asked to work. We want to stop these stereotypical views and help the homeless by getting more schemes and programmes to help them get back on their feet . Many homeless people are blamed for their actions however what people don't know is that there are many stories behind the cause.
Please help us get this to parliament.
