Listen "Auckland CBD a 'tent city' as it grapples with homelessness crisis"
Episode Synopsis
Like 'tent city' is how part of the Auckland CBD is being described as the city grapples with a homelessness crisis. Auckland Council says homelessness has gone up 90 percent in the city since September last year, prompting calls for more support for those sleeping rough. The council's Community Committee says government policy changes are making it harder for people to access emergency housing. Checkpoint spoke to people living on the street in Auckland's city centre who say the winter months have been gruelling. Bella Craig reports.
