flag Queensland children trail other states in development, hit by housing, health, and education gaps.

flag A new report reveals that children in Queensland are worse off than those in other Australian states, with nearly a quarter not meeting key developmental milestones by age five. flag The study cites widespread challenges in housing, health, and education, noting 77,000 children start school unprepared, over 10,000 families are on social housing waitlists, and food insecurity affects 14% of families. flag Children in regional and remote areas, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander kids, are disproportionately affected. flag The report calls for a coordinated, long-term government strategy to improve access to health, education, and stable housing.
