SHIEN

SHIEN is a national network, facilitated by GHN and funded by the Scottish Government. It is a network for those who recognise the importance of involving & empowering people to have a say on the decisions that affect their life.
                                                                                                                                               
SHIEN is for Local Authorities and Health Boards with the strategic and statutory responsibility for homelessness - as well as the diverse range of voluntary and other sectors that provide direct services and supports.
                                                                                                                                
SHIEN recognises the overlaps between homelessness and other forms of inequality and exclusion  and so we also warmly welcome membership from service users, practitioners, policy makers and planners working toward wider health and community care objectives across Scotland.
                                                                                                                                   
SHIEN provides a highly regarded Toolkit, an online information Resource Exchange from national best practice initiatives, alongside Networking opportunities through an annual national conference and local seminars.
