Annual Report 2014 - 2015 | Shelter SA
Chair’s Report
I am delighted to present the 2015 Shelter SA Annual Report, my first as the Chairperson of Shelter
SA. Shelter SA’s past year has been one of very positive outcomes and innovation. In a complex and
rapidly changing housing environment, the Board set itself a key objective of better supporting and
enabling our excellent operational team to perform their important work.
This has been a year of important achievements for Shelter SA, for which the credit and thanks go to
our Executive Director, Dr Alice Clark and her colleagues, Amanda Taylor and Sean Sheehy. Alice,
Amanda and Sean have delivered a year of new initiatives, positive outcomes and forged stronger
networks with our key stakeholders. We were pleased to welcome Andris Banders to Shelter SA to
undertake special project work (on a contract basis) in relation to some important emerging issues
such as Social Investment Bonds.
This year Alice and her team have tirelessly informed, advised, and advocated on important housing
issues. They have posted and shared stories and information about housing using social media to
more effectively reach a broader audience. Over the past 12 months, the team has raised
community awareness about housing and homelessness by producing radio shows, creating
YouTube clips, conducting community forums and engaging with mainstream media. Most
importantly they have worked closely with Minister Zoe Bettison and her staff, Shadow Minister
Rachel Sanderson and other key supporters to help shape government housing policy and direction.
Shelter SA is strongly positioned to move ahead and the Board has made significant improvements
to various aspects of organisational governance. We have re-structured our financial processes and
appointed a new book-keeper and made budget provisions to resource some important special
project work, and broaden the strategic focus of Shelter SA.
This year we welcomed new Board members Paul Astley, Fiona Kelly (Uniting Care Wesley Bowden)
and Professor Andrew Beer (Centre for Housing, Urban and Regional Planning, University of
Adelaide). They have contributed their skills which include governance, corporate business, financial
expertise, community and housing sector experience and knowledge, and I am looking forward to
continuing to work with them over the coming year.
I also acknowledge the invaluable contributions of the other Board members who have served
during the past year. Firstly the continuing Board members, Deputy Chair and Secretary Patrick
Kukla (Towards Independence, Salvation Army) and Treasurer Mel Blondell, who have both gone
above and beyond the call of duty in their efforts to progress Shelter SA’s strategic plan and
provided me with their support and advice. Secondly I would like to acknowledge and sincerely
thank my retiring Board colleagues, Sarah Watson (Uniting Communities), Paul Turnbull (Helping
Hand) and Neil Murphy for their excellent contribution over recent years. All Board Members have
willingly volunteered their time and expertise and have made important contributions during a very
challenging period for Shelter SA and the broader housing sector. Each person has used their
different experiences and insights to enhance the Board’s governance and decision-making.

Annual Report 2014 - 2015 | Shelter SA
My final, but very important acknowledgement and thanks, goes to our State Government funding
partners for recognising the important and innovative work that Shelter SA undertakes and for
continuing to support and fund Shelter SA in a challenging funding environment.
I am confident that Shelter SA is strongly positioned to continue the important work it undertakes on
behalf of those who support our organisation and to build on our achievements in the coming year.

Annual Report 2014 - 2015 | Shelter SA
Executive Director’s Report
Out & About
During the past 12 months, Shelter SA has undertaken activities and achieved milestones in support
of its Strategic Plan and fulfilled its Service Level Agreement with the Department of Communities
and Social Inclusion.
In December 2014, the Reform of the Federation White Paper was published for comment. Shelter
SA collaborated with and supported the National Shelter submission to the Federalism review,
considering government roles and responsibilities in Housing and Homelessness. Shelter SA
provided a briefing to the Minister for Social Housing on the Federalism review and participated in
the Minister’s consultation. Shelter SA submitted a report entitled “Decentralisation – helping or
hurting?” which provides an outline of the details of the White Paper and includes a link to an
opinion piece written by Adrian Pisarski, Executive Director of National Shelter.
Shelter SA has also been influential in responding to State Government’s social impact bonds (SIBs)
work and held two homelessness sector consultations during the first half of 2015 for interested
stakeholders and organisations to explore how SIBs might be implemented in the homelessness
sector. The supply of social and affordable housing must be addressed if we are serious about
ending homelessness, so the focus of the SIBs forums involved exploring and discussing alternative
sources of funding to fund community services traditionally paid for by governments. The first
report is available here: SIB Consultation Report – Questions from the Field. Shelter SA has engaged
key public servants from Premier and Cabinet and other stakeholders to progress their SIBs work.
During the middle of the year, the Shelter SA team implemented its Regional and Rural Engagement
Strategy which involved visiting and engaging with housing agencies and housing support providers
in regional areas to talk about the unique issues facing individuals, families and communities in these
rural South Australian locations. A key objective for Shelter SA in the Strategy is to establish a range
of collaborations and partnerships that can work towards addressing important housing and
homelessness issues for our regions. Shelter SA acknowledges that the development and
sustainability of regional housing supply and services capacity is an ongoing challenge therefore the
importance of face-to-face meetings are invaluable in achieving this objective.
Community Led Development
Shelter SA has a strong interest in the supply of housing for people living on low incomes within
current policy and funding constraints. We have built a strong network of relationships with a wide
variety of stakeholders including our traditional member organisations, land-owners, developers,
builders, architects, social investors and financial experts who are supporters of a concept called
‘Community Led Development’. A number of principles underpin the CLD concept which include the
development of newly constructed residential dwellings that do not require any government subsidy
to provide a percentage of income-based rents and a market rate return on investment. The
concept also taps into social and ethical investment opportunities, the sustainable use of land,
medium density housing and excellence in design. Shelter SA is progressing the CLD concept on both
a project and State level and looks forward to sharing more information about CLD with you in the
near future.

Annual Report 2014 - 2015 | Shelter SA
Housing Matters – from voice to vision
Shelter SA’s community radio program “Housing Matters” was a highlight throughout 2014 with the
final show being broadcast on 27th November 2014. The radio program provided Shelter SA with
yet another broad media platform to share its work and activities across the community of South
Australia. Housing Matters achieved its strategic purpose and was an excellent tool to engage the
community.
With the conclusion of the Housing Matters radio program, a new opportunity in the form of You
Tube video production has commenced. Apart from producing regular Housing Matters ebulletins
and disseminating to all Shelter SA supporters, we have been developing informative You Tube
videos on housing and homelessness topics to share widely. Each video is available to watch via the
Shelter SA website. We are increasingly utilising social media to raise awareness amongst the
general public, gather support for ideas and policy change and conduct systems advocacy. Social
media metrics are valuable in the evaluation of our work.
South Australian Edition of Parity Magazine
Parity is produced by the Council to Homeless Persons in Victoria and is the National homelessness
sector magazine. Shelter SA is very excited to have been involved in the Reference Group for a
South Australian edition due for release in November. I am pleased to have been a Guest Editor and
Shelter SA has submitted a number of articles for the edition. We are also looking forward to the
launch event, which we hope to hold at Parliament House.
Mobile Phone App. Can iHelp?
Our 2013 University of Adelaide Arts Intern Sean Sheehy’s
project involved investigating the production and
implementation of a simple mobile App that connects young
people to the right emergency services to ensure that they
are not turned away from support services. Through the
Fund My Community program, Shelter SA submitted its
project idea for funding to develop and implement the App
however, funding was unsuccessful. After further consultation
with web and app designers and a marketing consultant,
Shelter SA has applied for a grant through Community
Benefit SA process and we are currently waiting to
receive notification from them.
The rise in casual employment, short term rental contracts and
a changing welfare system mean that young people are never
too far away from the risk of homelessness. By using the phone and social networking sites instead
of traditional street addresses, services are also able to stay in contact with young people and assist
them on their road home. Data collected by the App could allow services, policy makers and
researchers to see the impact of their work, and locate areas of need in the homelessness sector.
Reconciliation Day Event
To acknowledge and celebrate National Reconciliation Week 2015, Shelter SA staff attended the SA
Museum, Aboriginal Antiquities tour to gain an appreciation for and improve personal knowledge
about Aboriginal lifestyle and culture particularly prior to and during early settlement. Also as part
of its commitment to the Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), Shelter SA attended the NAIDOC week
8
Annual Report 2014 - 2015 | Shelter SA
breakfast celebrations at the Convention Centre and all staff undertook a very informative and proactive cultural training session with Craig Rigney of Kornar Winmil Yunti.
Homeless Connect Expo
The annual Homeless Connect: Homelessness, Health and Housing Expo was held at Whitmore
Square on Thursday 15th October with over 600 people and 50 agencies actively taking part.
This year’s Expo again used a local Aboriginal artists’ painting as its masthead and poster. De GreerYindimincarlie of Yindi Artz provided this year’s stunning artwork and Shelter SA thanks De for
allowing us to use her artwork as part of Homeless Connect. Shelter SA also acknowledges and
thanks the major sponsors of the Expo the Adelaide City Council and Housing SA for their continued
support of the Expo.
Shelter SA continues to speak publicly on issues that are important to our members, advocating for
evidence-based policies, legislation and service delivery, consultation in the community and
participation in the development of public policy. We look forward to your continuing support.
Reconciliation Action Plan
I am pleased to present to you the Shelter SA Progress Report on our Reconciliation Action Plan.
Thanks
As you will know, Shelter SA is a very small organisation. Amanda Taylor, Stakeholder Engagement
Manager, Sean Sheehy, Research Assistant and myself are the core staff who operationalise Shelter
SA’s work. I would like to sincerely thank both Amanda and Sean for their dedication and
contribution to our small but high functioning team, which I believe has achieved so much more
than the sum of its parts. Amanda’s attention to detail and capacity for engaging our supporters has
shown a marked growth in our strategic relationships and Shelter SA has benefitted from her
expertise in conducting consultations and workshops. Sean’s knowledge of technology and research
skills combined with his enthusiasm has allowed us to be more effective with social media and
increase the quality and quantity of our written work. I acknowledge and thank Andris Banders, who
has conducted project work for Shelter SA and shared his wealth of experience and knowledge with
us. I would also like to thank the Shelter SA Board for their support and good governance of Shelter
SA.

diverse range of stakeholders including government and non-government agencies, NGO’s,

Annual Report 2014 - 2015 | Shelter SA
Treasurer’s Report
I am pleased to present the Shelter SA Treasurer’s report for the year ending 30 June 2015.
The 2015 financial year was a busy and eventful year for Shelter SA, marked by uncertainty of
ongoing funding levels and funding periods. The funding contract that covered the last financial year
was for a single year only, which provided challenges in forward planning and operational decision
making. However, we are finalising a new funding contract for the next two and a half years from
December 2015, which better allows for planning, resourcing and delivery of exceptional outcomes.
Our financial management structures are frequently reviewed, with focus on budget outcomes. At
the end of the 2015 financial year the Board restructured the bookkeeping function and as a result
we have budgeted for a reduction in this expense category for the 2016 financial year.
For the 2015 financial year, Shelter SA performed well against the budget, returning an operating
surplus. A strong cash position has been maintained which will assist in the delivery of key projects
in the new financial year.
The Financial Statements have been audited without qualification. I hereby move that the Audited
Financial Statements be accepted as presented.
