The money will help buy and repurpose properties across the nation to house homeless Australian veterans. Hancock Iron Ore also operates a dedicated Veterans Employment Program to provide career opportunities for former ADF members.

Learning Outcomes 

  • Explain the scale and drivers of veteran homelessness in Australia and why urgent housing solutions are required.
  • Analyse how private sector funding and repurposing existing buildings can address social issues more rapidly than new construction.
  • Evaluate the importance of integrated support models (housing, employment, health and advocacy) in improving long-term outcomes for veterans.
