At Housing Justice, we believe that everyone has the right to a home that meets their needs and to feel that they belong. Migrants facing homelessness are among the most disadvantaged groups, often excluded from mainstream housing and support services due to systemic barriers, restrictive immigration policies, language and cultural barriers, and a lack of access to public funds. The absence of a safe and stable home significantly impacts people’s lives, making it harder to rebuild, integrate, and thrive.
Our approach is rooted in community-driven solutions, developed in strong partnership with the voluntary, community, faith and public sectors. We are committed to elevating the voices of people with lived experience to shape housing solutions that truly meet their needs.
