What is the Street Team:

The street team is a holistic organized prevention agency that conducts social skills training and bridging work for the most vulnerable and homeless in a developed system with prevention methods that ensure continuous follow-up on each individual citizen. The effort involves interdisciplinary and other partners.

The street team carries out, among other things: street outreach work in Nuuk at the places where the target group can be found. Social skills training is also conducted in supported living, for a total of 85 people, and supported living in their own homes for the homeless in their new homes.

In their efforts, the Street Team has also become aware of a need to meet citizens in an informal environment with appropriate frameworks and has therefore worked towards creating a space where citizens can come and receive an assessment in Uummateqarfik/ Hjerterummet.

Uummateqarfik / Hjerterummet is open during the day on weekdays for the vulnerable and homeless in society, where citizens, in organized conditions, have the opportunity to contact the Nødherberg staff or, through appointments with the Street Team, gain access to Hjerterummet. Citizens will have the opportunity to access a proper shower, clean change of clothes, a haircut at Salon Uummateqarfik / Salon Hjerterummet, and possibly use the Nødherberg, so that citizens have a bed to sleep in that night if they are homeless and meet the requirements for using the shelter.

Action plans are being created for the citizen, who is given the opportunity to move forward with support, guidance, backing, and follow-up from the Street Team, which is part of a holistic social professional effort for the homeless and socially vulnerable in the Municipality of Sermersooq.
