Confidence camp

Abstract

Homeless people who want to leave homelessness have a really hard time doing this, because they are stuck in the very same environment and have to face their problems alone. Our solution provides homeless people with a much needed vacation from their daily lives at the same time as they can learn new skills and build network that will help them in the future. The idea is a camp for the homeless based on four features that we have found are important to get out of homelessness; change of environment, activation, improvement of self-efficacy and improvement of social abilities. It is a place where they can prepare for the long journey out of homelessness.
