Homelessness Prevention: Lessons for Programme Development and Evaluation Practice - Good Practice Guidance
Description:
There is substantial scope for improved practice in the monitoring and evaluation of homelessness prevention activities in Scotland. Traditional monitoring and evaluation practice does not serve the needs of complex, multi-faceted and multiagency interventions of this nature and there are many challenges for monitoring and evaluation. Recent important changes in the national context and the shift in emphasis towards focusing public services on outcomes through Single Outcome Agreements (SOAs) also underline the need for evidence of the impact and value of homelessness prevention and other activities.
This guidance is based on the learning from the eight Homelessness Prevention Innovation Projects (HPIF). Many of the lessons here are not confined to homelessness prevention and are of wider relevance across Community Planning Partnerships.
