Centrepoint launch a new University of York report on the evaluation of a two year Housing First for Care Leavers pilot project
The evaluation results strongly suggested that a Housing First model for care leavers is worthy of replication in other settings.
The research included a literature review, project monitoring, qualitative interviews with young people and staff and other key stakeholders involved in commissioning and delivery of the project.
