Annotation	Four routes or pathways have now been identified by which individuals may come within the scope of Socially Excluded Adults (SEA) Public Service Agreement PSA 16, National Indicator 149, which is concerned with monitoring efforts to achieve settled accommodation for individuals with significant mental health problems. This article focuses on their needs and the identification of those with mental health needs as seen through these four principal routes. An understanding of these four possible pathways can help to identify areas for priority action, local delivery chains and partnerships, and also highlight some of the challenges and risks in and for delivery.
