Supported Housing - Resettlement and Community Support Service (RACSS)
Authority: The North Yorkshire Council (Local council)
What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionSupported housing can be a powerful intervention in supporting people to remain independent in their own homes. The Authority is committed to and aims to build on its successful Supported Housing Programme through its service offer of short-term accommodation and support of up to 2 years, helping individuals maintain their independence, develop resilience, wellbeing and practical skills to sustain tenancies thus preventing homelessness, and offering resettlement enabling progression towards independent living. The specification builds on the long-standing services which were first delivered under the banner of Supporting People (SP). It retains the principles of supported housing established under SP and through subsequent commissioned services but takes advantage of the broader remit of the Authority as a housing authority. The contract will be delivered as one Lot covering the whole of North Yorkshire. The service aims to provide housing related support to enable high and medium level risk offenders supervised by the National Probation Service (NPS) to maximise their potential for independence, through sustaining accommodation, accessing, employment, preventing homelessness and significantly reducing the risks of harm and reoffending, whilst easing pressure on other statutory services, through collaboration at strategic, delivery, and case levels.
The National Probation Service (NPS) will be involved in the Procurement and the ongoing Contract Management of this contract.
***Please note that the published Contract Value is based on Year 1 tendered costs and tendered unit cost and a potential inflationary uplift at the Authority's discretion.***
