At Include Youth, our vision is of a society that realises and fulfils the rights and potential of all children and young people. We have over 40 years’ experience of working with care experienced young people and from disadvantaged communities. We are a rights-based charity for children and young people in or leaving care, from disadvantaged communities or whose rights are not being met.
We work to improve employability, personal and social development enhancing inclusion, integration and good relations. We influence public policy led by the voice or children and young people, evidence based practice and International children’s rights standards.
Who We Work With
We work with young people aged 14-24 and provide services regionally throughout Northern Ireland and the border counties. The young people we work with have care experience or from a disadvantaged community.
Our Approach
Adopting a youth work based approach, we walk alongside young people in order to provide life changing opportunities. We provide a tailored wrap around service that helps young people gain qualifications, employability skills, develop self confidence and a better understanding of cultural diversity and inclusion.
