Supporting better conditions for rooming house residents
10 April 2022
As Darebin’s community health provider, we deliver services and supports to people living in rooming houses across the North-East Melbourne area.
Living conditions in these properties are often poor, and long-term tenancy hard to secure. We see the impact that this has on residents’ health and wellbeing and sent a submission to The Commissioner for Residential Tenancies advocating for changes that improve rooming house living conditions and promote tenants’ safety and rights through improved standards and regulations.
