The Outcomes Star is a comprehensive tool for measuring the outcomes of work with homeless people. We recommend its use with homeless people. It was developed by Triangle Consulting, originally for St. Mungo's, and subsequently widely tested and revised for the London Housing Foundation. The second editions are published by Homeless Link.

The Outcomes Star is used and valued by both funders and service providers. Local authorities are taking a keen interest in the approach and Triangle Consulting has recently facilitated an initiative that was funded by the London Housing Foundation, involving three London Supporting People teams.  

The Outcomes Star Collection

The Outcomes Star Collection has been developed to provide agencies with the supporting materials and guidance they need to implement and use the Outcomes Star approach:
