Sammanfattning
This study is an evaluation of a municipal Housing First (HF) program. The program offers assertive
community treatment to persons with dual disorders. One of the principles in HF is harm reduction. The
aim is to reduce negative consequences related to addiction. There are no criteria for abstinence. Two
focus group interviews were conducted. A qualitative content analysis of the transcriptions resulted in
three themes: a holistic view on harm reduction, importance of therapeutic relations and supporting
safe housing. The study concludes that harm reduction in HF can contribute to a more stable everyday
life.
