Impact Youth Services is a fee for service, private organisation whose sole purpose is to provide the best quality emergency and short to medium term residential care to young people within the looked after system.
We adhere to the following principles and acknowledge our responsibility as a designated agency,
to ensure:
- The Care planning process is carried out alongside the young person
- Decisions are made in respect to permanency and sustainability
- The rights and responsibilities of young person are protected and clearly defined
Our values and beliefs create an entitlement for the young person
which is:
- Non-judgemental
- Non-discriminatory
- Professional in work ethic and practice which preserves their individual rights
Impact youth services provide carefully designed programs which are structured to be flexible, innovative and creative, which are accessible to the young person in need and minimise any barriers to participation and success.
Our houses host a family style environment where workers are seen as a consistent role model from which the young person can learn to interact positively.
Our roll is to help the young person in the transition to an environment of restoration, foster care or independent living. Continuous monitoring and evaluation of our service delivery ensures success.
