Interventions – What we do

We will work with you to initially just to get to know you. We want to find out what you are good at and what is going for you in your life and environment. We will ask what you think about:

• why you committed the offence.
• what triggered it or caused it. Including all the aspects of your life and current circumstances.

Once we know this, together with you and others supporting you, we can work out a plan to stop this happening again. It may be as simple as you not having been in school. Then having nothing to do during the day. This led to hanging around with older children or adults and then getting into trouble.

We can help look at why you are not in school. We can find a new placement or renegotiate getting back into school. We will look for other activities and friendship groups that are more positive.

We will help with:

• Understanding the harm – helping you repair the harm (Restorative Justice)
• Reparation – paying back for the harm caused
• Education, Employment and Training – helping you get back into education or work
• Drugs and alcohol work – helping you understand your drug use and how it affects offending
• Offending behaviour work – what leads to young people committing offences
• Communication support – making sure that you are heard
• Support from CAMHS (mental health)– help with managing emotions and trauma
• Creative Arts to Communication – helping you improve communication through different mediums

We help you make up for what you have done and then help you get your life back on track so you do not offend again.
