"Experts by Experience" - a group of people who are experiencing homelessness take part in the conference every year, with full support and training, from the main stage, in the exhibition hall and in smaller groups and seminars.
This year's programme includes:
- a strong focus on mental health, including the latest thinking on Psychologically Informed Environment, trauma-based interventions, and recovery
- additional focus on homeless children and families, offering both academic and practical service-based perspectives
- examples of the impact of truly person-centred, integrated service delivery
- sessions on addressing challenging health issues - from psychoactive substances, to blood-borne viruses, to multi-morbidity
- lessons from leading-edge approaches to involving and being influenced by Experts by Experience
- transferable learning from exclusion health for the wider health and care system
- practical approaches to increasing accessibility and relevance of services and reducing health inequalities
As well as the latest reports and lessons from Pathway teams and international insights
The content will update professionals on specific themes identified by Faculty members over the last year and explore the development of the UK "Inclusion Health" programme.
These include:
- Faculty of Homeless and Inclusion Health: Pathway Programme
- Inclusion Health: defining a new discipline
- How can health and local government services identify the most vulnerable?
- The balance between specialist and mainstream healthcare provision of the most excluded
- Processes of exclusion - can health services reform?
- How can we reduce premature mortality at the extremes?
- Set the research agenda for homelessness and health
- New health commissioning models for homeless and excluded groups
- Defining education and training needs for clinicians who work with homeless and other severely excluded groups
- Identifying new service models or health service responses that work
- Considering homeless people's health issues and those of other severely excluded groups in the wider context of health inequalities in British society
Professionals from health and care and people with personal experience of homelessness and service delivery will play a leading role in the programmes.
