The extra funding is expected to deliver more than 500 additional crisis and transitional homes, on top of the 968 dwellings already approved as of 31 July. Those approved projects are forecast to support more than 35,000 people over the next 20 years, including over 22,000 women and children escaping family violence, along with young people experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Around 1,000 women, children and young people are expected to benefit each year from the newly announced funding alone.
