Description:
Housing associations are central to the government's strategy to improve social housing yet have no direct statutory responsibility for rehousing homeless people. This study critically examines the role of housing associations in responding to the needs of women who have become homeless due to domestic violence. The book is a rare example of in-depth case study analysis of the work of housing associations in a period of profound organisational change. Through this, it critically examines: the role of housing associations in rehousing homeless people; the impact of competition on housing management; the nature of inter-agency relationships in a multi-racial environment; domestic violence policy making and 'best practice'; housing association access, assessment and allocation processes. Housing associations - rehousing women leaving domestic violence will fill a gap in the literature for academic staff and students interested in housing studies, social policy, sociology, women's studies, political studies and organisation/management studies; provide valuable guidance to staff in housing associations and local authorities working in 'general needs' housing, supported housing and homeless services; and provide policy makers with a useful introduction to key issues.
