Italian municipal Housing First initiatives

Overview

Municipalities in Italy are implementing ‘Housing First’ initiatives to combat extreme poverty and homelessness using funds from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP).

In Jesi, the municipality, Asp Ambito 9, and Caritas expanded an existing program by adding two renovated apartments on Via Roma. This expansion increased the total number of available housing units to six, serving 11 people. The project focuses on providing a stable foundation for social reintegration through work and civil coexistence.

Similarly, Palermo launched a new phase of its ‘Housing First’ project, offering 25 positions over a 24-month period. The initiative provides housing for 12 individuals in renovated apartments, while the remaining 13 beneficiaries utilize temporary housing. The program aims to place housing at the center of a support path to help individuals achieve autonomy and social integration.
