Housing first - Un tetto con cura - 1 to 9 projects

Supporting vulnerable people and preventing institutionalization  (Mission 5, Component 2, Investment 1)

Italy’s Recovery and Resilience Plan provides support for vulnerable people and preventing institutionalisation. This investment will include the following interventions: (I) supporting parenting skills and preventing vulnerability of families and children; (II) supporting an autonomous life and de-institutionalisation for elderly people; (II) reinforcing home social services to guarantee early supported discharge and prevent hospitalization; (III) strengthening social services and preventing burnout among social workers.

The investment is financed by Italy’s Recovery and Resilience plan by EUR 85 million at the national level.

As part of this investment, the “Un tetto con cura” project aims to provide long-term temporary assistance, up to 24 months, through the provision of accommodation in flats located in small groups in the area. This solution is aimed at individuals, small groups or families in situations of extreme hardship, who cannot immediately access public housing and who require continuous support. An individualised project, aimed at activating the personal resources of the individual or the family unit, will foster paths to autonomy and capacity-building.

Projects will focus on several aspects, including:
- individual paths to overcome the emergency situation;
- accompaniment and coordination with territorial services for long-term planning;
- cooperation with other institutions, such as prison facilities, justice services and the judiciary.

This project is financed by the Recovery and Resilience Facility with EUR 6.390.000,00.
