Join Rock Trust for an insightful webinar on Upstream Scotland, their innovative school-based model designed to identify young people at risk of homelessness before they reach a crisis point.
Launched over a year ago as part of a three-year pilot, Upstream Scotland is being independently evaluated by Heriot Watt and Cardiff University, and the results highlight that prevention is key to tackling youth homelessness.
This session will cover:
▪️ The latest insights from the independent evaluation of the programme.
▪️ Practical and strategic perspectives from schools implementing Upstream.
▪️ The strategic role of early intervention in ending youth homelessness.
You’ll hear from experts, including Kate Polson, CEO of Rock Trust, Professor Suzanne Fitzpatrick from Heriot-Watt University, and Dave Macluskey, Strategic Lead: Education & Learning from Perth and Kinross Council alongside frontline practitioners and policymakers. There will also be a Q&A session, giving you the chance to ask questions and explore how Upstream could work in your area.
Whether you are a school leader, local authority representative, policymaker, or youth support professional, this webinar will provide practical knowledge and opportunities to engage with this pioneering initiative.
