Description
Aberdeen City Council is seeking to collaborate with other service provider/s to deliver a Housing First Service within Aberdeen City. The service provider will have to meet the needs of homeless clients aged 16+ with severe and multiple disadvantage, or complex needs as defined by the Scottish Government RRTP documentation, as benefitting from intensive wrap-around support and a Housing First approach to re-housing. The service will initially provide for 50 participants who are receiving a Housing First approach to their identified support needs and have been housed. Over time it is expected that the service will take new referrals as program spaces are vacated. The service requirements of the Service provider include securing social and private landlords to provide properties for individuals on the Housing First programme, 24/7 point of contact support which is assertive and intensive, undertaking statutory consultation and co-ordinating partnership working.
