Always worth remembering that #HousingFirst is not just delivered in the bigger cities where homelessness is more visible. Renfrewshire is a brilliant example of the right partners coming together to make a big difference #itworks
We worked with Ian to launch Housing First Renfrewshire, in partnership with #turningpointscotland.
Continues to deliver amazing results and benefits for many people (and services) in Renfrewshire #itworks
The late Ian Irvine brought Housing First to Scotland after visiting New York and seeing it in action. Turning Point Scotland invested in making it work for people in Glasgow and it is spreading across Scotland. It really does work and investment is needed to end homelessness.
Today we publish new research via @HF_England showing #HousingFirst not only ends homelessness among some of the most disadvantaged people in our society, but it does so in a cost-effective way.
