  4. FUNDING OF ASYLUM HOUSES Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs of the Czech Republic Magistrate of the Capital City of Prague Municipal Districts of Prague – grants Foundations, endowment funds Private donors ESF - EU funds

  5. STARTING/TRAININGFLATS Change from living in asylum houses to living in training flats and related risks Social work with clients in training flats The issue of Housing First in the Czech Republic

  6. CREATION OF THE PERMEABLE HOUSING SYSTEM Permeable housing appears to be a suitable model for providing long term housing to households with insufficient competence in keeping rental housing.

  7. PERMEABLE HOUSING SYSTEM • Crisis housing (asylum housing; living in hostels with supporting social programme, living in hostels, night shelters) • Living in training flats where undertenants are provided with supporting social assistance (social activation service, outreach social work) 3) Long-term social housing (its parameters enable long-term dignified housing for the target group)

  8. 3 MODELS OF TRAINING HOUSING • Living in training flats owned by an NGO. → A client is a tenant, an NGO is a landlord and a provider of supporting services. • Living in training flats owned by another owner. → A client is a tenant, a municipality district office is a landlord, an NGO is only a provider of supporting social services. 3) Living in training flats rented by a non-profit organization from other landlords. → A client is an undertenant, anNGO is a tenant and provider of supporting social services, a municipality district office or private owner is a landlord.

  9. Housing Stock of Municipality Districts of Prague (giving an example of Prague 5 and Prague 3) Process of client selection for training flats Supply and demand 11 TRAINING FLATS Tenant - NADĚJE Undertenant - client(a person without a regular dwelling) Landlord (flat's owner): 5 flats - Magistrate of the Capital City of Prague, 1 flat - Municipal District Prague 11, 5 flats - Municipal District Prague 5 We are negotiating with Municipal District Prague 3 NADĚJE STARTING/TRAININGFLATS

  10. SELECTION OF CLIENTSFOR TRAINING/STARTING FLATS PROCESS OF CLIENTSELECTION Social work in an asylum house Cooperation with a curator for adults Recommendation for a client/clients to a municipality district commission Recommendation for selected clients to a municipality district council Allocation of a particular flat Social work in a training flat

  11. SELECTION OF CLIENTSFOR TRAINING/STARTING FLATS RISKS Bad adaptation of a client to an independent life in a flat Income of a client (often unstable) Indebtedness Reluctance to leave a training flat, namely when it is qualitatively better than a long-term one

  12. STAFF Administrative staff of NADĚJE Headquarters, Branch Office Praha (branch director, branch economist, accountant, methodologist) Direct care staff (asylum house manager, social worker, social services worker) Others (e.g. curator for adults, representative of social department, commission for selection of proper candidates)

  13. OBSTACLES Lack of training flats - reluctance of the municipalities to establish this kind of flats Selection of proper candidates Participation of private subjects - real estates landlords (is it not possible to engage these subjects due to mistrust?)

  14. EVALUATION Evaluation of existing experience with training housing Future of training flats Prospects of future – Social Housing Act?

  15. SPACE FOR QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSION
