Milestones

We urge the government to mandate the installation of 6ft fences in all military family housing to enhance security, privacy, and well-being. We request the standardisation of 6ft fencing in ALL military housing, Ensure that all new and existing military homes have 6ft fences as a minimum standard.

We think this could: Increase Security for Military Families Reduce the risk of unauthorized access Prevent outsiders from having visibility into homes, which can be a security threat. Deter potential criminals or hostile actors from targeting military families. Improve privacy and well-being Support families, especially when service members are deployed, by giving them a greater sense of safety. Provide children and pets with a secure outdoor space to play
