What we do
forum Youth Work
You and your youth worker will work together, to build a relationship and get to know one another. Your youth worker will give you the chance to talk face-to-face, listen to what’s important to you, and do the things you like to do e.g. doing fun activities. The people you live with can be part of this, if you want them to be.
person Personal planYou and your youth worker will work together to make a plan around what you need help with, and what you want to change in your life. Your plan can be made any way you want e.g. with drawings, or voice recordings.
edit_document Financial support
Help can be available to support your plan and help you achieve your goals. Your youth worker will work with you, to ensure your goals are sustainable long-term.
Our support is…
Free and accessible – Your youth worker can meet you on the ward, where you live, or around your local area. They can work with you for up to 7 months.
Confidential – Our team of youth workers will keep what you tell them private, unless they have concerns about the safety of yourself or others. All In-Reach youth workers are supervised and managed, to make sure they‘re working safely and professionally.
Effective – There are lots of ways we can help you; setting goals, advising on options, working with you on issues, and meeting you regularly.
Please be advised that referrals to the Young Devon In-Reach service can only be made through specific channels. To ensure proper coordination and support, all referrals must come directly from either the hospital ward or your CAMHS Crisis worker.
Managed by Young Devon, In-Reach is delivered by partners across the South West; The Zone (Plymouth), SPACE (Exeter), Encompass South West (North Devon) and Intercom Trust (specialist LGBTQ+ support across the partnership).
