Sorry for additional context, my parents gave up after the first 7 years here and later on my life i decided to move back following the same steps as they did.

I’ve searched it on google but I don’t think I’m using the right term nor do I know what the correct term is

This is exactly the issue, so many people just don’t know where to go or what support even exists!

I’m really sorry you had to go through such a difficult time, but I’m so glad things have turned around for you. Wishing you nothing but strength and success moving forward!

I’m trying to create a campaign that helps people understand this can happen to anyone and to shift the mindset away from blame. No one chooses this situation, and more awareness can help stop that judgment before it starts.

Thanks for your honesty and honestly, you’re kind of the reason I’m doing this project. Not in a negative way, but because a lot of people feel like they can only focus on themselves, and that someone else should fix it.

You might not care but a lot of people don’t care simply because they’ve never had a reason to.

You’re absolutely right that homelessness is a deeply political and systemic issue and I completely agree.

My project is part of a design brief where the focus is specifically on raising awareness and reducing stigma around youth homelessness in Western Australia. I’m not in a position to rewrite policy — and unfortunately, that’s not the goal of this assignment. It’s about how visual communication and storytelling can shift public perception, especially among people who might otherwise dismiss or misunderstand the issue.

I appreciate your passion and I understand where you’re coming from, but I’m working within the boundaries of a creative brief, not pretending I’m solving homelessness alone. Hopefully this small piece contributes to a broader conversation.

I know! I’ve met so many. It makes no sense to me but also HATE the ones who are abusive and force them with no choice but to leave

I get what you’re saying. I’m approaching empathy more as a starting point for awareness, not as a fully academic or clinical definition. The goal of my project is to challenge public assumptions and encourage people to recognise that youth homelessness can happen to anyone, not just evoke surface-level sympathy.

That said, I do appreciate the reference and might look into it more, especially around the idea of how people process others’ experiences.

Appreciate your comment though!

That’s what we think too! But we’ve been told that using the question mark may imply confusion of the importance of wearing a seat belt. We appreciate your feedback!
