The Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) is commissioning an ambitious programme of work to create a 'step change' in the evidence base for Homelessness and Rough Sleeping (HRS).

DLUHC provides a range of funding to support interventions to prevent homelessness and rough sleeping and where possible make it, rare, brief, and non-recurrent.

It is vital that services are effectively targeted, and that future policy development puts evidence-based decision-making at its heart.

This research will deliver a complexity sensitive systems-wide evaluation which improves our understanding of what works, takes into account the multiple interdependent components and interactions that shape the system, and thinks ambitiously about systems-wide change.

This work also includes a programme of strategically important trials to test specific interventions called the Test and Learn programme and a deep dives programme delivering rapid and flexible research.
