The HARP Protocol - Housing and Returning Prisoners
This strategy has been developed in the Tyne & Wear area to bring together statutory and voluntary housing providers with prison and probation services, to create a common approach to planning for the housing of returning prisoners.
The Protocol seeks to address:
- statutory housing authorities duties towards the prevention of homelessness
- prison and probation's commitment to effective resettlement
- the promotion of community safety
- maximising the contribution of RSLs and the voluntary sectory to housing and supporting offenders
