In the UK today, young people face a disproportionate risk of homelessness compared to their elders.
This report sets out the findings of a study into the impact of recent legislative change on young homeless people's access to housing and support across England and Scotland.
The report offers insight into the changes to homelessness assessment, provision of advice, accommodation and support services, and joint working between social services departments and the voluntary sector
