Supported housing

This section provideds details of Supported housing services in Devon. Supported housing is any housing scheme where housing, support and sometimes care services are provided as an integrated package.

Some schemes are long-term, designed for people who need ongoing support to live independently, others are short-term, designed to help people develop the emotional and practical skills needed to move into more mainstream housing. This can include support with health needs, including mental health, drug and alcohol use, managing benefits and debt, developing daily living skills and accessing education, training and employment.

If you think a vulnerable adult is being abused in any way, tell someone.
