Young and Homeless
Homeless Link, our partner in the VCSE Health and Wellbeing Alliance, has published its latest Young and Homeless report, funded by Land Aid and Comic Relief. The top three support needs of the young people that participated in the research were: not being in education employment or training (44%), a lack of independent living skills (41%) and mental health problems (35%). Despite the prevalence of mental health issues, 63% of respondents said there were significant barriers to young people accessing mental health services.
