Housing support is a practical, educational and social intervention that aims to make it easier for the individual to manage their everyday life. Housing support is an intervention that provides support to engage, encourage and motivate the individual to independence by performing activities together with staff. The individual's specific needs determine what the housing support intervention should look like and when the intervention should be carried out. Housing support can be provided in ordinary housing or to people living in homelessness. According to proven experience, housing support in one's own home increases the ability to manage one's home life independently, increases participation in activities in society and increases the level of functioning.
