Tender ID: 579883
Tender Details
Tender Description
Regional Reset program is targeted to young people 8 to 17 years old and their family, where the young person is displaying a pattern of early criminal and/or anti-social behaviors (including drug and alcohol misuse and anger management issues) and are, or at high risk of, coming into contact with police and/or court system, and may be disengaged from school.
The program is intended to help these young people and their families by providing a short stay of 1 to 3 weeks, as well as mentoring and therapeutic supports for a period pre and post stay. The program will focus on education, discipline, counselling, training and employment skills that include community volunteering, cultural activities, skills, adventure and sport. Regional Reset is an opportunity to divert young people from their high-risk environments and provide an opportunity for respite and to reset relationships, behaviors and attitudes.
The program will provide culturally responsive pre-stay engagement with young people and their family (or guardian/carer where appropriate). Post completion of the reset, the service will provide short-term aftercare to embed learnings for both the young person and family, as well as support warm referrals to community-based supports to address ongoing needs.
