***MEDIA ALERT***

 

A new Everybody’s Home report reveals Australians on the lowest incomes are being priced out of renting in virtually every corner of the country, despite a rise in Centrelink payments and rent assistance.

WHEN: Monday 23 September, 9am

WHERE: Mural Hall, Parliament House, Canberra
