Just Home chairperson Naomi Godden said the 10 minute survey required responses from people living in the Augusta Margaret River area who are currently experiencing homelessness or are at risk of homelessness.
"We will collate survey responses to help inform housing action and advocacy in our community."
Just Home provides a Housing Information and Referral Service for people experiencing homelessness and housing stress.
"We are also advocating for increased social housing and crisis accommodation in our community.
"We are actively calling for urgent and effective government responses to the rental crisis."
If you are experiencing homelessness or are at risk of homelessness, you can contact Just Home to arrange an appointment for information and referrals related to your housing options.
