In this powerful episode, Toni's daughter Jess, a passionate youth worker at The Foyer, shares heartbreaking stories from the frontlines of youth accommodation support. She opens up about the struggles faced by young people who arrive in Australia from war-torn countries, only to have their parents deported upon arrival, leaving them to navigate life alone while fighting the system to bring their families back.

Jess also speaks candidly about her own past, including her experience with bullying at school, and how those difficult years shaped her empathy and commitment to helping others.

This is a raw and eye-opening conversation about youth homelessness, family separation, resilience, and the real-life impact of Australia's immigration system on vulnerable young people.
