Youth Recovery Action Plans
Youth Recovery Action Plans are designed to offer 1 To 1 Youth Support to young people who may benefit more from individual support instead of group-based activities.
The Recovery Action Plan (RAP) has been designed to allow individuals to take a holistic look at their life and identify areas where they can take action to help their wellbeing.
RAPS are tailored specifically for people who may benefit from support in a more one-to-one environment. With the support of a Wellbeing Worker, young people are able to set realistic, timely goals in areas of need.
The Recovery Action Plan will cover the following areas:
- Managing My Wellbeing and Anger
- Living Skills
- Physical Health and Self-Care
- Social Networks
- Identity and Self-Esteem
- Addictive/Challenging Behaviour
Taming My Temper
This course looks at the causation of negative emotional behaviour and the anger response displayed by people. It then looks at ways to minimize negative emotions and alternative ways to cope and remain calm.
Utilising Cognitive Behavioural Coaching, peer interaction support, self-discovery exercises, relaxation techniques and task setting, the course enables participants to:
– Explore anger in it’s broadest context and improve awareness.
– Understand anger and how it can affect people, introducing theory around thoughts, feelings and behaviours and encouraging participants to explore their own emotions.
– Learn about different cognitive styles and how these can have an impact upon life.
