About us
Our mission

To provide individualised programs to meet the needs of each care leaver and young adult.
To address wider support needs and encourage opportunities for personal development and achievement.
Our values
Partnerships:
Working in partnership with public bodies (Children & Youth Agencies, Education, Mental Health, and Substance Abuse, Local Authorities) to cost-effectively support care leavers. We will invite feedback and use our partners’ concerns to continually improve our efforts.
Responsiveness:
We will respond quickly and professionally to referrals.
Support and sustainability:
We understand that youth are unlikely to sustain positive behaviour unless their families can actively support them. We engage families and assist them in resolving problems and developing a supportive culture. Aftercare is not an afterthought; we plan for successful post-discharge transition from day one. Our emphasis on behaviour control, education, and employability skills gives youth the ability to find productive roles in society.
Community:
Community outreach projects allow youth to regain an awareness and empathy for their victims, and to provide restitution through volunteer service.
Education:
Innovative education and skills development programs prepare youth to enter and succeed in the world of work.
Diversity:
We understand that, the “how” is more important than the “what,” and the “what” is directly related to the “who.” Our staff complement the cultural diversity of the youth we work with. Our staff have the requisite educational and work experiences, but most importantly, brings empathy and a “whatever it takes” philosophy to succeed with all young people, particularly those living in care.
Our vision
To support our residents to lead the best life possible on their pathways to independence.
