Homelessness, Learning From Those Who’ve Lived It: The PESP Evaluation

17.02.14

CHP has been running the Peer Education and Support Program since 2005. This volunteer program provides people who have experienced homelessness with the opportunity to improve the service system.

In 2013, CHP received a grant from the Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation to evaluate the PESP program. This evaluation has helped to identify both the benefits for those who participate in the program, and improvements in the service system as a result of the involvement of PESP.

The Final report and the report appendices can be found via the links below.

Please note, this publication was published prior to CHP’s branding refresh in 2022.
