Housing First Pilot Evaluation

Tender description

MHCLG has committed £28 million to pilot Housing First in the 2017 Autumn Budget. This includes funding for a robust evaluation. Housing First is targeted towards helping some of the country's most entrenched rough sleepers. The Pilot will take place in three regions, Greater Manchester, Liverpool City Region, and the West Midlands Combined Authority. The Pilots are currently developing their implementation plans. MHCLG are seeking to commission an impact, economic and process evaluation of the Housing First Pilots, as well as work to scope and agree the design of the impact evaluation with the Pilot areas. The implementation timetable for the Pilots means we would like to commission the scoping work, and the impact, economic and process evaluation at the same stage to the same supplier. The main purpose of this pre-market engagement is to test the feasibility of this approach.
