Description
Our Vision is that every child and young person in Oxfordshire should have access to a full range of housing services and the opportunity for a decent and affordable home suitable to their needs; and that vulnerable families should be enabled to live in safe and suitable housing as a basis for supportive family relationships and thriving communities.
The Objectives of the YPSA are for Young People:
• To be in accommodation suitable for their needs
• To be supported to maintain their accommodation appropriately
• To feel safe and are protected from harm
• To engage in education, employment and training
• To be supported to live healthier lives
• To be equipped with the skills necessary to live independently.
• To be supported to prevent homelessness / reoccurrence of
homelessness
• To be supported to build appropriate and positive relationships and links
to their local communities and family members (where it is safe)
• To be moved on in a planned manner, without reoccurrence of
homelessness
The County Council has a statutory duty to provide housing and support for the following vulnerable young people:
• Looked After (LAC) and Leaving Care aged 16 to 18 years or up to 24 years in some circumstances.
• Unaccompanied Asylum-Seeking Children (UASC) aged 16 and 17 years.
• UASC of 18 to 21 years with no recourse to public funds subject to a Human Rights assessment.
• Young people who are homeless aged 16 and 17 years.
• Young people remanded through the youth justice system aged 16 and 17 years.
This project is specifically for 18+ shared accommodation. OCC are seeking a suitable supplier to provide intensive support and accommodation for young people who are assessed as able to live with others given appropriate support. This will be the large majority of young people entering commissioned YPSA services.
