11 at all. To be able to build relationships with like-minded people and services across our jurisdiction was invaluable. Our presence (both in terms of colour, and number, and participation in the entire conference) was excellent thank you NT Shelter for your support of our attendance! Siobhan Mackay, Chief Executive Officer, Katherine Womens Legal Service. The conference came at an opportune time for the Northern Territory as we enter into the final year of five-year funding agreements and the Northern Territory Government and the sector begin work on homelessness reform as per Priority Five of the current Northern Territory Homelessness Strategy. To ensure reform in the Northern Territory was front of mind during conference sessions, sponsored attendees posed questions including could these approaches be implemented in the Northern Territory? and what are the benefits or savings of implementing these approaches?. Sponsored delegates have so far reported that the conference was an incredible opportunity to hear from leaders in the sector about their responses to the housing crisis. Many have also raised that it was challenging to hear presentations from Victoria and New South Wales as innovation from other jurisdictions shed light on the stark disparity in solutions available in the Northern Territory due to a lack of funding.
