Answer
Of the 1,031 households in service of Housing First that were waiting to be housed as at 31 March 2026, 305 households were living without shelter when they joined the service. The living situation of these households may have changed since they entered the service, however the reporting does not capture these changes in a dynamic way for this population of service users
