Research suggests that there is no single programme or intervention that has all the answers. Rather a range of approaches is required. Programmes used should be based on a comprehensive assessment of a young person.

The programmes team is committed to provide a high quality of service to young people and have a genuine desire to ensure that best outcomes in relation to programmes are available to them. The programmes team ensure that there is an appropriate range of programmes available to the young person based on a thorough assessment of their need and risk. Our programmes are linked with attaining formal SQA qualifications.
