| Title: |
My Space My Place - The Workers Toolkit |
| Publication Date: |
First published 2006 Scottish Council for Single Homeless |
| Publication By: |
Scottish Council for Single Homeless |
| Description: |
The workers toolkit consists of a Young
Persons Guide (11 magazines in a special
carry case) with an additional magazine
for workers and a CD-ROM packed with
useful material. The toolkit is intended for all workers supporting young people in their tenancy.
The workers magazine, just like those for young people, is practical and accessible. It includes personal stories as well as practical advice on helping young people sustain their tenancies, making best use of the My Space My Place pack and a guide to the CD-ROM.
The CD-ROM includes fifteen session
plans for working with young people
preparing for and settling into their own tenancies. In addition, there are bundles of warm-up exercises, additional group and one-to-one activities, standard letters, and templates for customising the Young Persons Guide. Also included are some video clips in which young people and workers discuss the challenges of sustaining a tenancy.
The My Space My Place resource won the UK Housing Award for Outstanding Achievement in Social Housing for Scotland in November 2006. |
