They work in drop-in, outreach, school and casework settings, one to one or in small groups.
Focus areas
- Engagement and rapport
- Identity and strengths
- Healthy relationships
- Decision-making
- Help-seeking
- School and work readiness
Scope: Engagement and skill-building tools. Follow your organisation's duty of care, child safety and mandatory reporting requirements.
