Samenvatting

Young people experiencing homelessness still is a major social problem in the Netherlands. In addition to varying personal circumstances, there are a number of flaws in the housing system that make it more difficult for young people to obtain a roof above their head. Commissioned by SZN (the foundation for homeless youth in the Netherlands) TU/e Urban Labs conducted a quick-scan of the policy and practice of youth housing in The Netherlands. Through a series of interviews with professionals and literature research nine barriers are identified. The research shows that in absence of help young people without personal advantages get stuck in a maze of regulations and institutions. It is concluded that the problem is systemic and that the collaboration between parties and authorities is not only a precondition for good assistance of young people (such as between housing corporations and care institutions), but also for the development of housing for young people and the development of policy and new, more integrated concepts.
