“…Choice in housing, stability of tenure and neighbourhood conditions, such as safety, appear to be associated with improved resident well-being and greater satisfaction with life and housing, but loneliness and isolation can be of concern Kyle & Dunn, 2008;Siegel et al, 2006;Stergiopoulos et al, 2014).…”

“…If the study was judged to have 'some concerns' for multiple domains in a way that substantially lowered confidence in the result, then the study was given an overall 'high' risk of bias (see File S8). For the remainder of the studies (Brown et al, 2015;Collard et al, 2014;Driscoll et al, 2018;Hall et al, 2019;Karim et al, 2006;Kirst et al, 2014;Schick et al, 2019;Sharpley et al, 2019;Siegel et al, 2006;Spector et al, 2020;Tsai et al, 2019;Whittaker et al, 2015), if the study was judged to be at 'low' or 'moderate' risk of bias for all domains, then the study was given an overall 'moderate' risk of bias, as the study provided sound evidence for a non-randomised study but could not be considered comparable to a well-performed randomised trial (see File S9).…”

“…Anxiety was reported in three studies (Karim et al, 2006;Sharpley et al, 2019;Siegel et al, 2006) as a primary mental health outcome and explored in another study (Driscoll et al, 2018) as a secondary measure. In the retrospective study by Sharpley et al, (2019), the results were mixed for previously homeless persons' self-reported anxiety scores (Generalised Anxiety Disorder-7 [GAD-7]) after they were housed.…”

Housing is a significant determinant of health and is widely accepted as a key solution to address some of the health disparities that exist among the homeless. It is estimated that 150 million people worldwide are homeless, and approximately 1.8 billion lack adequate housing. However, understanding of how housing has a positive impact on the health of the homeless remains unclear and underdeveloped. This systematic review investigates intervention studies that report on the physical and mental health effects of housing homeless persons. A search of PubMed, PsycINFO, EBSCOHost-Academic Search Complete and the Cochrane Library was conducted for peer-reviewed articles published in English from 1999 to 2020 that had a combination of at least one housing intervention and health outcome, with a homeless sample. Three previous reviews and 24 studies were included for analysis. Most of the studies (n = 20) encompassed permanent supportive housing interventions that emphasised placing homeless people with mental illness directly into affordable housing with access to support services. The primary health outcomes reported were general physical and mental health, wellbeing, and quality of life. Despite inconsistent findings and significant issues identified in the reviewed literature, housing (in the short term) improves some aspects of health in homeless populations with human immunodeficiency virus, anxiety and depression.

“…Although supportive services are recognized as important for other outcomes, ending homelessness and increasing housing stability have been linked primarily to the provision of a housing subsidy (e.g. Tsemberis & Eisenberg 2000;Rosenheck et al 2003;Siegel et al 2006). Supportive services have been associated with some improvements in non-housing related outcomes.…”

This study examined the impact on children of services delivered through a collaborative initiative designed to provide supports to working poor families who are homeless or at immediate risk of becoming homeless. Overall, a number of positive findings can serve to inform the development of promising intervention strategies for children in homeless families and highlight areas for further research. Along with improved housing status, there was a statistically significant improvement in the economic self‐sufficiency of the families served, regardless of whether they completed the full programme cycle. In addition, youth self‐report data indicated significant improvements in externalizing and internalizing behaviour. The ability to combine programme data with school data for participating children also made it possible to explore school performance outcomes. Although these results did not indicate a change in participants’ levels of attendance or reading performance, there was a statistically significant improvement in students’ math scores. Moreover, when participating children were compared with a group of students matched on their level of academic performance at baseline who had not received housing or homeless services, no significant differences were detected between groups post‐intervention, indicating that services may help reduce the risk of homeless students’ falling further behind their peers academically.
