UNITE has a proven track record in resolving intra family conflict, which aids quick resolution for all concerned. The service UNITE provides enhances the options available for the young person and their family/carers. Homelessness mediation aims to reduce blocks to communication and allow an understanding to be achieved between all parties and aid the young person to realise their personal needs with positive support networks.

The service will, in addition to contributing towards reducing homeless applications, aim to improve intra family relationships between young people and their families/carers enabling young people to make the transition to independent accommodation with positive support networks, enabling sustainability.
