Integration Transformation Fund (ITF), DFGs and Independent Living

Events - Public

Starting 05 Dec 2013 - 10:00 through to 05 Dec 2013 - 15:01

Less than 4 weeks away, reserve your place now!
 
Although ITF will only come into full effect in 2015/2016, localities are required to submit their plans by the end of February 2014 to ensure local priorities are met.
 
This means
• The big decisions will be made in your local area in the next 6 months.
• ITF will start to transform the commissioning landscape in the next 18 months.
• It will require a new understanding between Health, ASC and Housing.
• It will seek to establish truly Integrated Services.
 
What our seminars will cover
We will have speakers from DH, DCLG and local area commissioners, to help you to:
• Understand the changes which lay ahead - both opportunities and possible threats.
• Align your service offers to better meet the objectives of the new funding regime.
• Work with your local housing partners to ensure the housing support issues are recognised within the local priorities for the ITF.
