Description
Join this webinar to find out more about ‘Ending Destitution in Scotland — A Road Map for Policy Makers’, a new legal briefing by Professor Jen Ang.
Jen’s briefing sets out simple, actionable steps that lie within the powers of Scottish Parliament and the Scottish Government to reduce destitution for people coming to Scotland to study, work, join family or seek sanctuary. The briefing looks at:
- Access to social security and financial support
- Access to housing
- Access to transport
- Access to health and social care
- Access to justice and legal aid
- Access to education
- Access to work
If your job or organisation is concerned with any of these policy areas -then this short webinar is for you! It will be a really helpful way to consider what you can do to end destitution for people with No Recourse to Public Funds.
This event is organised by Fair Way Scotland, which is a partnership that aims to prevent and mitigate destitution and homelessness among people with no access to a state welfare safety net.
