Homelessness Prevention
You may think of shop doorways and cardboard boxes when you think of homelessness, and that is the sad truth for many young people. However, BYHP also supports young people who are staying in abusive homes, B&Bs, hostels, squats or moving from friend to friend to sleep on a sofa. Young people who may have a roof over their heads but are certainly not always safe and secure - the Hidden Homeless.
Many people view homelessness as a personal failing, but there are many reasons for homelessness including:
- Parental eviction
- Unemployment or underemployment
- Leaving care or the armed services
- Mental health issues
- Drug and alcohol issues
There are many common misconceptions about youth homelessness, but we must remember that all young people deserve to feel safe and valued.
For these reasons BYHP offers a range of services to help prevent homelessness and when that is not possible our Housing Advice & Support Worker will assist you in finding safe secure accommodation.
