Belfast And Lisburn Community Project is a nonpartisan organisation committed to preventing and ending homelessness in our community and to support family in need.. Our approach is tailored to the people and our community. Wherever we work, we do so with common values and the same respect for each person we meet. Our work ranges from providing safe shelter, accommodation, food and health services to helping people affected by homelessness receive the education, employment and social services they need.
Anyone can become homeless, it damages individuals, affects families and communities, we believe in most cases homelessness can be prevented. We believe that with the right approach, funding, government support and community education that homelessness can end. We believe that prevention is the answer, sustainable housing stock, social property investment and a housing first approach will break homelessness. Homelessness is a diverse social issue, with multiple factors contributing to who may be at risk and indeed the support available to them. As our world changes around us we must be equipped to face the challenges to our communities and ensure we are best prepared to offer the most appropriate support. We believe we can do this.
