Webinar: Homelessness Prevention Practice in Health & Social Care (Practitioners)
Webinar: Homelessness Prevention Practice in Health & Social Care (Practitioners)
Webinar: Homelessness Prevention Practice in Health & Social Care (Practitioners)
Monday, November 14, 2022
Crisis, Cyrenians & the Scottish Frontline Network will be hosting a webinar session exploring existing homelessness prevention practice within the health and social care sectors.
1.30pm - 4pm
Monday 14 November 2022
Online
The Scottish Government plans to introduce new homelessness prevention duties as part of a forthcoming housing bill. The new duties will allow people to get help earlier – up to six months before they are at risk of homelessness – and require public bodies to ask about someone’s housing situation and then act to get them help if needed.
At this homelessness prevention webinar we want to:
- Share examples of existing practice & approaches within the health sector
- Learn more about new or innovative prevention practice in your area
- Understand what changes are needed to enable earlier intervention and better joint-working practice in anticipation of new duties on public bodies to prevent homelessness
We would particularly like to hear from:
- GP Practice staff (Including Community Link Workers and other embedded advice staff)
- Social workers
- Social Care Workers
- Occupational Therapists
- Health Visitors
- Hospital-based Staff (Such as Accident & Emergency staff, Administration/Discharge staff, Navigators/Peer Support workers)
- Local Authority Homelessness/Housing Staff (Particularly those who liaise with social work/health professionals to support clients who are homeless/at risk of homelessness)
- Third sector organisations working in partnership with health and social care services.
