Homelessness strategy survey
Homelessness has increased in Lower Hutt in the past 12 years.
So Council has been working with a range of agencies, health providers, schools and those who have found themselves homeless to work out the best ways to address the problem.
The first phase of Council’s homeless strategy lays out the vision and priorities that will guide a plan of action to tackle homelessness, and we want your views on them.
The following link will provide some background and give you the chance to take the survey (at the bottom of the page).

So we want to hear what you think:

60.9% Yes, supporting people is important!

23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated
