WHAT DO WE MEAN BY ‘A SYSTEM’?
‘System Thinking’▸ Young people are at the centre of ‘the
system’;
▸ The parts of the system interact;
▸ Interacting parts are interventions, programs and institutions that affect young people;
▸ A system centred around young people is local and community-based;
▸ The ‘community as system’ is open not closed and influenced by policies and funding. AHURI Webinar

REDESIGN OF A HOMELESSNESS SERVICE SYSTEM FOR YOUNG PEOPLE
How the research was done!
AHURI Webinar
➢ The ‘system’ as a place-based community of interventions, programs and institutions that affect young people, and are, in turn, affected by young people—an ecosystem around young people that extends beyond the SHS.
➢ The most promising initiatives for system change are most likely to be found in some form somewhere among the many programs and services across Australia.
➢ Using purposive sampling, key informants were sought in community settings known for promising initiatives or innovation.
➢ Redesigning the homelessness system is about finding reforms and measures that promise to lead to better outcomes, especially where there is a strong evidence-base.
➢ System redesign initiatives and reforms are not just about changes to the SHS.
Q1. How can rebalancing the support system for vulnerable young people be rebalanced to significantly expand early intervention and post- homelessness rapid rehousing and supported housing for young people?
Q2. What changes to housing agreements and policies, as well as income and employment support policies and practices, would be needed to redress the current issues young people have in accessing and maintaining affordable housing options?
Q3. How can the education/employment support systems and the community services/homelessness systems be better integrated systemically to reduce the cohort of disadvantaged and/or homeless individuals into the future and across the life course?

YOUNG PEOPLE ARE A SIGNIFICANT CLIENT GROUP EXPERIENCING HOMELES SNESS’?
Homeless Young People
▸ About 44% of all individuals who seek help from the SHS are young people and children;
▸ About 81,000 are children, young people and young parents in family groups;
▸ About 16% or 42,000 SHS clients are young people 15-24 years of age on their own.

▸Understandable from lived experience dealing with one crisis case after another;
▸Feels intuitively right at the coal-face … but;
▸ Is this a policy informed by system thinking that can end homelessness?

To reduce the road toll, we don’t install more trauma beds in the hospital – we implement airbags, seat belts, speed cameras and safer cars and improve road conditions to reduce the number of accidents
