Other writings by Robin Johnson and colleagues
If you have appreciated the work gathered here, you may be also interested to see some of the other collected writings of Robin Johnson and his colleagues.
Two 'guidance' documents were published by the UK government (in 2010 and 2012 respectively):
'Non-statutory guidance on meeting the psychological and emotional needs of people who are homeless' : HERE
Psychologically informed services: operational guidance : HERE
NB: These two government-backed documents effectively launched the PIEs approach as recommended practice, in the UK. But it was to be some years before the full detailed framework on PIEs in practice was developed (HERE).
