The organisation's director Victoria Crockford tells Kathryn about the types of situations women find themsleves in when homeless and why that changes the type of support needed.

A council in the Hutt Valley is using artificial intelligence to cut LIM wait times, inform residents during emergencies and cut staff workloads. The Hutt City Council says it has begun a project that will see AI collating all of the various parts of information needed to make a LIM in minutes before being reviewed by staff. It usually takes staff as long as 10 working days. The council has also been shortlisted for an international award for a chatbot residents will be able to ask questions of during an emergency. It will have up-to-date information relevant to the street the user lives on and be able to speak in different languages. But the Lower Hutt council is not alone in its use of AI, according Mike Manson who is chief executive of the Association of Local Government Information Management. He says councils up and down the country are using the technology for things like parking fines, writing minutes and financial reports and in a fire warning system. He says councils can make significant cost savings, and improve services.
