More Description
A new framework for tackling homelessness, based on collective, cross-disciplinary and cross-sector action, under which all future policy and intervention is tried, tested, monitored and then adopted according to real-world results.
Homelessness is unequivocally devastating. In the UK, the average lifespan of a homeless person is just 47, 30 years younger than the national average, yet policy makers are still failing to adequately address the crisis.
The Centre for Homelessness Impact brings together this urgent book which gathers the insights and experiences of a diverse group of government leaders, academics, radical thinkers and activists to set out new evidence-based strategies and solutions to the homelessness crisis. Demonstrating why and how working collaboratively helps people working to end homelessness achieve better results, this much-needed book provides crucial evidence to underpin future policy, practice and funding decisions.
