Homelessness levels are far too high. This can have a devastating impact on those affected, including young people. To reduce the numbers of people experiencing homelessness, we must stop people reaching crisis point by preventing homelessness before it happens.

Youth homelessness will be considered as part of our long-term, cross-government strategy to get us back on track to ending homelessness for good.
