## Description
The Kent Homeless Connect (KHC) service was commissioned by the Council in October 2018 to support adults with complex support needs who are facing homelessness. To meet the financial challenge posed by the budget this year and in years to come, the Council’s budget, agreed on 10 February 2022, included the proposal to allow the service to end when the contract expires on 30 September 2022.
After this date, the Council agreed to provide protection funding, drawn from its reserves, to ensure continued support for people who use the service for at least the remainder of the financial year (2022/2023) whilst transitional plans are drawn up with city, district and borough authorities and other stakeholders, in order that alternative arrangements for support in the future can be put in place.
