Wrap around support offering a Housing First style fidelity model will aim to reduce rough sleeping activity and ensuring access to local services – health (street triage), mental health (street based assessments). Collaboration will include increased flexibility around emergency or temporary accommodation through Housing Options plus access to hostel beds, and will align with the current commissioning of assessment centres and ‘safe places’ short term emergency beds. The ethos of the service delivery will be based on PIE (led by Brighton and Hove) and MEAM (Adur and Worthing) delivering innovation in strengths based work.
A history of rough sleeping (seen rough sleeping at least 6 times over the last 2 years) or have spent at least 3 years interacting with homelessness services (including hostels) and have at least two other complex needs (including, but not necessarily limited to Substance misuse or addiction problems (including New Psychoactive Substances), a history of offending (5+ offences in the last five years or 1 offence in the last year) or street based anti-social behaviour, mental health problems (including self-reported), long-term health conditions) and are currently not being adequately or effectively supported through existing services.
INDIGO data are shared for research and policy analysis purposes. INDIGO data can be used to support a range of insights, for example, to understand the social outcomes that projects aim to improve, the network of organisations across projects, trends, scales, timelines and summary information. The collaborative system by which we collect, process, and share data is designed to advance data-sharing norms, harmonise data definitions and improve data use. These data are NOT shared for auditing, investment, or legal purposes. Please independently verify any data that you might use in decision making. We provide no guarantees or assurances as to the quality of these data. Data may be inaccurate, incomplete, inconsistent, and/or not current for various reasons: INDIGO is a collaborative and iterative initiative that mostly relies on projects all over the world volunteering to share their data. We have a system for processing information and try to attribute data to named sources, but we do not audit, cross-check, or verify all information provided to us. It takes time and resources to share data, which may not have been included in a project’s budget. Many of the projects are ongoing and timely updates may not be available. Different people may have different interpretations of data items and definitions. Even when data are high quality, interpretation or generalisation to different contexts may not be possible and/or requires additional information and/or expertise. Help us improve our data quality: email us at indigo@bsg.ox.ac.uk if you have data on new projects, changes or performance updates on current projects, clarifications or corrections on our data, and/or confidentiality or sensitivity notices. Please also give input via the INDIGO Data Definitions Improvement Tool and INDIGO Feedback Questionnaire.
