Despite our collective wealth and values, poverty and inequality are rising rapidly in Western Australia. One in seven West Australians are living in poverty. No Place for Poverty believes every West Aussie deserves a fair opportunity to live a good life: one with security, belonging, and real possibility. But for too many people, poverty is putting that out of reach. No Place for Poverty exists to make change by bringing West Australians together to find common ground, take action, and build a fairer, stronger community for all.

Come and hear how No Place for Poverty is working in Western Australia to build a future where no one is left behind
