How do we prevent repeat homelessness?

University of Amsterdam

Preventing repeat homelessness is high on the agenda in many cities. In Utrecht, an approach was developed in 2019 that intervenes in several areas of life to try and get a grip on the problem. UvA Sociologist Dr Nienke Boesveldt and her team of researchers and experts examined the effectiveness of the approach. From 2019 to 2023, the team followed the life trajectories of 69 (former) homeless people in the Utrecht region and identified various risk factors and possible protective measures. Their final report is published today.
