Homelessness

Councils are determined to tackle the homelessness crisis, which represents many thousands of individual tragedies and a national emergency. Councils are house builders, support providers, responsible guardians to homeless people, and in a unique position to lead and shape local responses to homelessness. Our ambition is to end homelessness, by enabling councils to prevent it in the first place.
