Housing with Support
Our Sli Nua “Housing with Support” Service opened in 2012. This innovative service is supported by the Westmeath County Council, the HSE and the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government.
It provides 10 apartments which offer a long-term home to people with a long-term experience of homelessness and/or housing instability.
The service is managed by the Line Manager of the Emergency Accommodation Service in Athlone, as well as a dedicated Case Worker who offers key working and visiting supports to ensure that people successfully progress out of homelessness and into the security of a home of their own.
In 2020 our Housing with Support Service in Co Westmeath supported 11 people.
