What about Me?During the 2011 Census Count Yourself In!

 The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) will hold the next Census of Population & Housing across Australia on 9 August 2011.  QYHC is supporting the ABS by partnerning to provide information to young people and service about the Census.

If you are homeless at Census time, its important for you to answer “None” to the question on the census form about what is your usual address. This includes those who are 'couch surfing' – staying temporarily with friends or relatives, or at a friend's parents' house.

Young people who are homeless are important, so its also important to know how many young people are homeless. 

Youth Homelessness Matters Day 2011.

The next YHM Day 2011 will be in the middle of National Youth Week - if you are interested in participating in the campaign contact QYHC to have your name put on the register.
