Project name: Keeping Families Together & Key to Potential With CashBack For Communities
Age range: 10-25 years, plus siblings and families
At Cyrenians we offer two distinct, but related, values-led and relationship-based interventions to nurture skills and improve resilience amongst young people and families most at risk of spiralling into the justice system.
Our trauma-informed approaches address clear gaps in provision which are ‘tried and tested,’ enabling young people to overcome barriers and break intergenerational cycles of unemployment and involvement with crime.
Keeping Families Together
Our Keeping Families Together strand works across Scotland in partnership with Scotland’s five secure centres. We provide skilled mediation, rights-based, whole family support and conflict resolution workshops.
Our integrated approach enables young people and families to improve communication, address underlying issues and build stronger, more positive, relationships.
Key to Potential
Key to Potential provides skilled for some of the most disadvantaged young people in our communities. We offer one-to-one outreach and home-visiting careers advice to those who have disengaged from school, and those at high risk of becoming involved in the justice system.
Working with local partners in Falkirk, we support young people to make informed life choices as they transition from school, enabling them to realise their ambitions by moving onto positive destinations in employment, education or training.
