CONTEXTS & CONSIDERATIONS When working with young people experiencing homelessness and housing instability, it is also important to incorporate housing options into employment services. To date, evidencebased housing approaches include rapid rehousing and permanent supportive housing that emphasizes housing first (Padgett, Henwood, & Tsemberis, 2016). These approaches follow the principle that flexible psychosocial and vocational interventions must accompany housing supports (National Alliance to End Homelessness, 2012). In the adaptation study, the IPS model was implemented in a host agency that had a drop-in centre, an emergency (30-day) shelter, a long-term shelter, and permanent supportive housing (apartments) with an emphasis on housing first. Housing options for IPS participants were varied, as housing stability is often fluid in this population. For example, while only one IPS participant reported living on the streets at baseline, others initially reported precarious housing situations (e.g., living with abusive parents, with a partner’s family, with friends). Still others abandoned shelters for the streets during the study or lost their permanent supportive housing due to relapse and lack of commitment to residential drug treatment. Involvement in the IPS intervention (and in competitive employment specifically) for many young people sensitized them to the importance of safe, stable, and supportive housing as a prerequisite to accomplishing their work goals. IPS case managers worked with participants to tailor housing options as part of their IPS case plan. IPS clinicians worked with participants on mental health issues (e.g., depression, substance abuse, posttraumatic stress disorder) that can hinder success in gaining and maintaining both employment and housing (Whitbeck, 2009). The integration of housing, employment, clinical, and case management services not only honours young people’s preferences and life goals; it also is consistent with the best evidence for addressing youth homelessness. CONCLUSION Despite its origins with adults with severe mental illness, IPS is adaptable to work with youth with mental illness who are homeless or street involved and is associated with successful retention and employment outcomes. The eight IPS principles of supported employment can be adapted to better support these young people in obtaining and maintaining competitive employment. Staff from agencies that serve youth who are homeless can learn more about the IPS model through the IPS Employment Center, as well as obtaining training, implementation, and evaluation materials to administer the IPS program in their agency. To administer an IPS program with high fidelity, at minimum, the host agency should have a supervisor and at least three staff to form an IPS team (i.e., employment specialist, clinician, and case manager) for every 20 youth participants.

MENTAL HEALTH & ADDICTION INTERVENTIONS FOR YOUTH EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS: PRACTICAL STRATEGIES FOR FRONT-LINE PROVIDERS staff should make every effort to implement the intervention according to the guidelines outlined in the Supported Employment Fidelity Scale. Through adopting an individualized and long-term approach of integrating employment and clinical services, providing followalong supports, and honouring client preferences, services for youth who are homeless will have greater success in socializing these young people to the workforce, increasing their access to competitive employment, and improving their employment skills and outcomes.
