We’re people who fled violence, survived trauma, battled addiction, lived with disability and illness. We are mothers, fathers, carers and young people, all left waiting for help that takes too long, if it comes at all. Emergency accommodation is not care, it is crisis containment. And for too many of us, is the only option left.
