Arts and Homelessness Quality Framework 2025
A co-created guide for better, fairer, more creative projects in the arts and homelessness sector
The Quality Framework is a free co-created guide that offers suggestions, good practice, case studies and values for creative projects with people who are, or have been, homeless.
It is for anyone involved in arts and homelessness projects, including independent artists/producers, cultural organisation staff, homelessness support workers, commissioners, members of services.
The Framework is an updated version of our Practice Guide which was inspired by other toolkits and guides in the sector. The framework has been co-authored by Natasha Steer and Matt Peacock of AHI, with members of the community listed at the end.
We don’t claim to have all the answers, we may have made mistakes and readers of the guide may have alternative views. We are treating this as a living document which can be adapted and updated on an ongoing basis for everyone’s benefit. If you have any questions or feedback please contact us – details below.
We also offer free training, advice and guidance on this Framework so get in touch if you would like to. We’d love to hear from you hello@artshomelessint.com
We are very grateful to our funders and the Arts Council England in particular who have supported this work.
