Housing First and Post Stations (Mission 5, Component 2, Investment 3)

The Recovery and Resilience Plan protects and supports the inclusion of marginalised people through housing first and post stations. The introduction of the ‘housing first’ approach means that municipalities shall make flats available for single individuals, small groups or families up to 24 months. 

In addition to this, customised projects will be activated for each single person/family in order to implement personal growth development programmes and to help them achieve a higher degree of autonomy, also by providing them with training and with other services aimed at improving their employability level. 

On the other hand, the implementation of ‘post stations’ means the creation of service and inclusion centre for homeless people. Such centres will offer, besides a limited night reception, important amenities such as health services, catering, post distribution, cultural mediation, counselling, job orientation, legal consulting, and goods distribution among others.

This investment is financed by the Recovery and Resilience Plan with EUR 450 million.
