Street Support Good Practice Collection
The Street Support Good Practice Collection addresses social services, including social entrepreneurs and adult trainers, municipalities and local governments. The Collection wants to make a substantial contribution to improve current service provision for people who use drugs and/or alcohol in public spaces.
The good practice examples aim at inspiring service providers and policy makers by providing concrete examples which promote the social re-inclusion of people in a situation of homelessness who use alcohol and/or drugs as well as of other marginalised groups who loiter in the street and cause alcoholor drug-related nuisance. The Good Practice Collection features projects and programmes which provide different types of support services:
- Work opportunities, training activities or another meaningful occupation as means of social inclusion,
- Housing,
- Community-based work,
- Peer support or are user-led,
- Harm reduction services and low-threshold drug-related services as well as mobile services,
- Advocacy and awareness raising
