Poverty in the ACT Sample Clauses

Poverty in the ACT. The ACT Poverty Task Group defined poverty as individuals and households that: • experience a lack of personal safety and well being; • are unable to access resources; • face inequity in accessing resources; and • are unable to participate in their community.”6 People affected by poverty are at particular risk of homelessness or unstable housing. According to ABS Household Expenditure Surveys (conducted between 1984 and 1999), the level of low-income households in the ACT grew by 67% over the 10 year period to 1994 – a rate of increase higher than that for total household growth. 7 It is widely acknowledged that safe and appropriate housing is essential to break the cycle of poverty. The housing choices for those in poverty are limited, especially in tight housing markets.
