Insights Papers

Each year, we publish an in-depth paper exploring a unique aspect of homelessness. These annual publications are designed to be accessible, engaging, and insightful, breaking down complex issues into easily understandable parts to foster a better understanding and spark meaningful change.

We invite you to explore our research, join the conversation, and be a part of the solution.

Discover, learn, and advocate with us at Launch Housing.

How to end an avoidable homelessness and health emergency

Homelessness and health are deeply intertwined.

Poor health can lead to homelessness, and being homeless can worsen health issues. This creates a vicious cycle: without stable housing, people struggle to get the healthcare and support they need, and without good health, it’s more difficult to find or keep a home. Each night without shelter makes their health problems worse.

Read our report to find out how you can help end the homelessness and health emergency.

Capital Cities Homelessness Index

Launch Housing has developed the Capital Cities Homelessness Index to inspire advocacy and action to end homelessness.

Homelessness has been on the rise for over a decade. This is true not only in Australia, but across many OECD countries.

Launch Housing is a place where people of diverse backgrounds, genders and sexual orientations are welcomed and supported.
