SJOG Intensive Housing Management Service
Providing high-quality person-centred housing support
SJOG’s Intensive Housing Management (IHM) offers a service for people living in supported housing to help sustain their tenancies and live safely and independently in their home.
IHM involves general landlord services, together with additional services and support for those who need it.
For some people SJOG will be their landlord. A tenancy agreement in an easy to understand format is given to all our tenants. This explains what the responsibilities are of both the tenant and the landlord.
