What do we learn if we methodically track the life experiences of 167 people from birth to adulthood? A lot, it turns out. The ABC has captured the personal stories and policy insights from @Brotherhoodinfo's mammoth longitudinal study 'Life Chances'. abc.net.au/news/2024-06-0…

Thank you to all who joined us at our new Thrive Hub in Frankston today, which was officially launched by Minister for Employment @VickiWardMP. This service will help the community find meaningful and sustainable employment, while also addressing local labour shortages.

Our Saver Plus program has been helping people with lower incomes develop and improve financial skills and savings habits for over two decades. This year's Fed Budget confirmed additional funding will allow this important program to continue and expand. bsl.org.au/services/savin…

We welcome many of the initiatives in this year's #FederalBudget that provide much-needed support for large parts of the Australian community. Unfortunately, there is a long way to go until Australia is truly a fair place for all. Full response here: bsl.org.au/news-events/me…

As a social justice organisation, BSL supports the National Rally against Violence this weekend. With the tragic reality of 30 women killed by male violence this year alone, let's stand with survivors, challenge victim-blaming culture, and demand real action.
Kon Karapanagiotidis@Kon__K

A 30th woman has just been killed by male violence. A woman has been killed every 4 days on average in Australia in 2024. This is a national emergency. Join a rally this weekend across Australia to demand real action and solutions from our political leaders 👇🏼

The wealth inequality gap in Australia is widening, and set to get even worse unless we demand action. Check out this new report from @ACOSS and @UNSW shedding light on how the poorest households bear the brunt of structural failures in Australia and why. povertyandinequality.acoss.org.au/wp-content/upl…
ACOSS@ACOSS

New research by ACOSS and @UNSW reveals the extent of wealth inequality in Australia. While the lowest 60% of households saw a 55% increase in wealth over two decades, the highest 10% witnessed an 84% surge. #InequalityinAustralia #AusPol #Raisetherate povertyandinequality.acoss.org.au/wp-content/upl…
