Strategic Housing Partnerships

The Council works with a wide range of partners both locally and county-wide to deliver strategic housing objectives. Key partnerships include:

Kent Housing Group

The Kent Housing Group (KHG) is a forum for social housing organisations in Kent. Acting as the 'Voice of Housing in Kent' the group serves to represent the collective voice of Kent's housing bodies providing advice and a 'Kent perspective' to regional and national bodies.

Joint Policy & Planning Board

The Kent Joint Policy and Planning Board for Housing (JPPB) is a strategic partnership between Health, Housing and Social Care. The Board incorporates representation from the East and West Kent Local Housing Authorities, Supporting People, East Kent Primary Care Trust, East and West Kent Social Services, Kent Children Families and Education, Kent Drug and Alcohol Action Team, Kent Probation, Youth Offending Services and Catch 22.

The JPPB provides the forum where strategic issues requiring joint working between Health, Housing and Social Care can be raised and measures to address them developed.
