More about Housing First

The Housing First model is proven to end homelessness, and works on the belief that housing is a basic human right. Housing First offers people who are experiencing homelessness, and that have multiple and complex needs, a home for life. Their home creates a stable foundation for recovery, and to settle and meet their goals.

Housing First Rotherham is a pilot partnership between South Yorkshire Housing Association and Target Housing. We also work with Chesterfield Borough Council and Doncaster Metropolitan Borough Council on Housing First services in Chesterfield and Doncaster.

 
 

“I can’t describe how happy I am with the support I get. I have a nice little flat and my own space. I’ve had so many chances, but no one has let me show how I can change. I feel at peace and feel excited that I will be here forever – thank you.”
