Our Core Model – Intensive Support and Supervision
Our core programme of intensive support and supervision encourages young people to begin to take responsibility for their own actions, through social skills development, cognitive development and learning.
The programme is delivered through intensive one-to-one support and supervision from a qualified, skilled and committed project worker, supported by assistants and mentors. The materials used include a specially devised Includem workbook. Our services go to young people wherever they are although for younger children more of the work might be done in a home setting.
Assessment of both need and risk is a key part of the programme and recognised risk assessment tools are used at the beginning of all work and regularly thereafter.
Our staff are on call 24/7 through local text and phone helplines, which are offered to all young people on referral and to their main family carers. Our services go to young people wherever they are. All staff have management support on a 24-hour basis.
