Using Evidence to End Homelessness by Julia Unwin
Available open access under CC-BY-NC license. Homelessness is unequivocally devastating. In the UK, people affected by homelessness are ten times more likely to die than their peers in the general population, yet we still miss important opportunities to adequately address the issue. The Centre for Homelessness Impact brings together this urgent book gathering the insights and experiences of leaders in government, academia and the third sector to present new evidence-based strategies to end homelessness. Demonstrating why and how a new movement is needed that embraces data and evidence as integral to ending homelessness effectively, this book provides crucial methods to underpin future policy, practice and funding decisions.
“This volume is a fascinating synthesis of the concerns and challenges facing those working to end homelessness, alongside the emerging transferable lessons and insights arising from the growing role of evidence evaluation and what works across many public policy domains" Ken Gibb, UK Collaborative Centre for Housing Evidence
"Where resources are at a premium, impacts life altering and options disputed building knowledge about what works is essential. This book offers a serious way to achieve large scale sustainable progress for people experiencing homeless in the UK and beyond." Nancy Hey, What Works Wellbeing.
