Services
two.1.4) Short description
At a high level, the requirements can be split into two primary themes:
- Helping to address the behavioural challenges of young people and families in difficulty; and
- Intensive support provision for young people on the edges of care.
The work that will be undertaken within these themes should support our young people to remain safely within, or return to, their own community and minimise the number of young people who require statutory support interventions. The approaches should be strongly evidence based and taken forward in partnership with other agencies such as Social Work, Health, Education and Police. Risk assessment and management should be central to all working practices and all plans for support to young people should be based on a well-developed collaborative assessment process.

Helping to address the behavioural challenges of young people and families in difficulty.
- Aims to cover a range of needs for children and young people from low to high concern, some interventions here will simply be about wellbeing and need whereas others are more likely to be about high level concern and risk.
- Some of the behavioural matters will be focussed on, and a consequence of a child’s experience of, trauma and/or adversity and it is therefore expected that providers will have staff conversant with and able to deliver service in a trauma-informed/responsive way.
- The primary principles we would expect this aspect of the service to work to is that all behaviour is communication.
