We are now working on Phase 2 of our preventative spend project, looking at services in RCT which aim to prevent homelessness.

The RCT HDRC team have identified research questions and will be exploring how money can be spent to prevent people from becoming homeless. This will also involve testing our definitions of preventative spend in a different context.

We will be using evidence from across our Evidence Pie. For questions relating to the academic evidence, we are collaborating with the Wales Centre for Public Policy and the Centre for Homelessness Impact, drawing on their combined expertise in this area.
