Count Me In - How to Prevent Evictions & Exclusions

Securing positive outcomes is the central objective of good supported housing practice. With the advent of formalised outcome frameworks, and an awareness of the need to demonstrate value for money the pressure is on organisations to demonstrate the effectiveness of their work.

This course is suitable for housing managers and staff working with all forms of tenure in supported housing. The course will ensure staff responsible for housing management and support are able to remove barriers to accessing accommodation and reduce evictions and bans within their projects.
