National Housing Federation (NHF): Further reading
This briefing from the NHF sets out housing associations' priorities in responding to the pandemic, which are:
- Keeping residents safe.
- Protecting residents' income and livelihoods by:
- Ensuring people can claim all their entitlement to help.
- Pledging that no one will be evicted from a housing association home as a result of financial hardship caused by coronavirus, where they are working with their housing association to get their payments back on track.
- Keeping vital services running, including care and support schemes to protect the most vulnerable and ease pressure on the NHS.
For each priority, the briefing outlines what housing associations are already doing, and what the government can do to support this.
