Prevention - Stopping people sleeping rough for the first time. 2. Intervention - Support to those currently sleeping rough to move off the streets. 3. Recovery - Support to those who have slept rough to ensure they don't return to the streets The appointed RSI Navigator provider is tasked with sourcing accommodation and building effective networks of support for rough sleepers in the borough.
