Homelessness plan is ‘world-leading’
Scotland could become a world-leader in ending homelessness under a new plan to end rough sleeping, charities have said.
The Scottish Government said it would shift towards getting homeless people into long-term and settled accommodation as part of their Ending Homelessness Together Action Plan.
Described as a “historic opportunity to make a real difference”, it aims to not only rehouse those on the streets quickly, but to prioritise prevention of homelessness.
