A message from Tenants Protection Association (Christchurch)
Housing children well is essential. Did you know ...
Seven out of ten children in poverty in this country live in rental housing, and most of them are in private market rental properties, not in social housing like HNZC or community housing.
Children living in private rentals are three times more likely to be in houses with major dampness and mould problems than those in owner-occupied homes.
On average owner occupiers spend five years in their house. An average rental tenancy is two years.
Thirty five per cent of students between Year 9 and 11 who moved twice or more achieved NCEA Level 2 compared with 83% of students who had not moved.
When working with families, children almost universally tell us of their extreme sense of relief not having to change schools.
