Supported Housing Relocation

Y-Säätiö aims to support residents in changing homes and settling into their new apartments. The research gathers information about the experiences of residents who moved from a housing unit to an M2-Kodit rental apartment in 2022, particularly regarding the relocation process, the support provided during the move, and living in their new home.

The purpose of the study is to describe the need for and significance of support at various stages of the relocation process from both the residents’ and support workers’ perspectives. Additionally, the research investigates how residents perceive their new home and its surrounding environment. The study is conducted as a qualitative research project, following the narrative research tradition, with visual material used to support the interviews.
