Abstract

PraxisCollab have been commissioned to provide an independent evaluation of the Housing for Women ReConnect+ programme of support. ReConnect+ provides supported accommodation for women in the transition from prison to the community, off ering crucial assistance to those who have multiple and intersecting lived experiences, histories of trauma, and experiences of abuse. By combining shared housing with comprehensive support services, Housing for Women aim to facilitate positive change, enhance emotional wellbeing, and reduce the likelihood of re-off ending following custody.
