Homelessness services are specialized programs assisting homeless people. While homelessness services may be government-run or government funded, non-profit organizations often play an important role in service delivery. Services supporting homeless people may assist them to achieve positive change in their life and reduce the use of both homelessness services and of other welfare services. While these services are specifically geared toward homeless people, researchers note that the drivers and the responses to homelessness stretch beyond the scope of such services.

  • Homelessness services are specialized programs assisting homeless people. While homelessness services may be government-run or government funded, non-profit organizations often play an important role in service delivery. Services supporting homeless people may assist them to achieve positive change in their life and reduce the use of both homelessness services and of other welfare services. While these services are specifically geared toward homeless people, researchers note that the drivers and the responses to homelessness stretch beyond the scope of such services. Some countries have a scarcity of rigorous research on the outcomes of specialized homelessness services. Others have adopted statistical collection programs to conduct research on outcomes and service delivery. In some countries, the majority of homelessness services are members of a peak body organization. Homelessness peak bodies typically have a reference group made up of member services and meet at least once a year in annual or bi-annual conferences. In other countries, an inter-agency council may represent various state-run services. Researchers found that local government can play a positive role in expanding the range of services and assisting with or helping to secure funding for services. (en)
