5. A definition of ending homelessness
No one sleeping rough
No one living in emergency accommodation, such as shelters and hostels without a plan to rapidly rehouse them into affordable, secure and decent accommodation
No one forced to live in transient or dangerous accommodation, such as tents, squats and non-residential buildings
No one homeless as a result of leaving a state institution, such as prison or the care system
Everyone at immediate risk of homelessness gets the help they need that prevents it happening.
Homelessness prevention, rapid response, and permanent solutions.
