Homes for Ukraine - Extension of Support into Work Programme Report by the Director of Adult Social Care and Health. Minutes: 10.1 The Lead Member considered a report by the Director of Adult Social Care and Health regarding the Extension of Support into Work programme under the Homes for Ukraine programme.
DECISIONS
10.2 The Lead Member RESOLVED to approve the proposal to extend the Support into Work programme for 12 months from October 2024 to October 2025 funded from the Homes for Ukraine grant.
REASONS
10.3 The Support into Work programme has already delivered significant benefits to the Ukrainian cohort within East Sussex and is meeting a need not met in another way. It is part of a comprehensive programme of wraparound support which achieves good outcomes for Ukrainians and ensures they are supported towards independence and wellbeing and not dependent on other stretched local services.
10.4 The extension of the programme will enable more Ukrainian residents to access employment and associated income which, in turn increases, their ability to live independently including funding their own accommodation and reduce the likelihood of needs and costs presenting elsewhere in the system, which to date the local authority has been able to minimise. |
