What is Homeless HAP?

The Homeless HAP scheme helps people who are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. It gives more supports to tenants than the regular HAP scheme. These extra supports include deposits and upfront rent payments to help homeless households find a suitable HAP tenancy. The Homeless HAP scheme is also known as the Place Finder Service. This service is managed by local authorities. If you are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless, you may apply to your local authority for these extra supports.
