The Future of Supported Housing Project: learning from existing literature

The National Housing Federation have published a literature review that outlines how supported housing has been and is currently funded in England, including references to Housing LIN research and our work with the NHF.

Set out in two sections, the first section draws lessons from previous approaches to funding supported housing since the 1990s, including the Supporting People programme and the removal of the ringfence. 

The second section looks at what we can learn from research and commentary on the current funding system. By exploring evidence and expertise from supported housing providers, charities, membership organisations, and government-commissioned research and evaluation, outlining the potential funding solutions.
