This Homelessness Prevention Strategy 2016 to 2021 will remain in place while we develop a new homelessness and rough sleeping strategy by the end of 2026.
The Homelessness Prevention Strategy 2016 to 2021 is the first shared homelessness strategy for Luton Council and Luton Clinical Commissioning Group and will be aligned to the local sustainable transformational plans (STPs). The need to respond to homelessness in a multi-agency coordinated way is now much greater, with every partner contributing their expertise and resources to deliver the aims of the strategy.
We intend to support our residents as early as possible to ensure they are enabled to help themselves in finding appropriate solutions to prevent homelessness and that the crucial support from families and friends should mean no-one finds themselves homeless before securing a new home or the services required to enable an improvement in health, wellbeing and informed decision making. We need everyone to plan for their future housing need.
