Ending long-term homelessness permanently: How to make effective links between housing and long-term support.

澳大利亚为无家可归者提供的服务通常提供短期至中期的援助和住宿。这种方法很难满足长期无家可归者的复杂需求。最近，政府在解决长期无家可归问题的新方法上进行了大量投资，但支持这些方法有效性的证据有限。该项目建立在为期四年的社会包容之旅试点计划的随机对照试验基础上，该计划旨在结束长期无家可归。该项目旨在对参与者进行为期两年的跟踪。该研究旨在提供关于哪些做法和因素产生积极成果以及哪些因素和做法维持积极成果的新知识。

Australian services for homeless people typically provide short to medium-term assistance and accommodation. This approach struggles to meet the complex needs of the long-term homeless. Recently there has been considerable government investment in new approaches to end long-term homelessness, but evidence supporting the efficacy of these approaches is limited. This project builds on a four year Randomised Controlled Trial of the Journey to Social Inclusion pilot-program which was designed to end long-term homelessness. The project aims to track participants for an additional two years. The research aims to provide new knowledge on what practices and factors generate positive outcomes and what factors and practices sustain positive outcomes.
