Abstract

This is a report on a project focusing on specifically assisting long term rough sleepers in the Parramatta area. The project consisted of active recruitment of rough sleeping or long term homeless men into a rapid rehousing program. The research sought to document, analyse and evaluate this approach via a series of interviews and a focus group, to determine if a ‘Housing First’ approach is useful for this cohort in reducing homelessness.
