Working either one-to-one and/or group work, our Tar Youth Diversion Project supports young people in their personal, civic & social development. 

Although the individual outcome for each young person varies regarding to individual needs, the general outcomes for young people involved are: 
 

• Greater sense of personal worth 

• Improved sense of civic & social involvement 

• Understanding of benefit of educational attachment and/or attainment 

• Increased engagement with pro-social peers 

• Improved use of recreation time 
   

Positive outcomes in these areas have proven to lead to a reduction in their likelihood of a young person offending/re-offending 

With the support of Youth Justice Workers, young people can participate in a diverse range of youth work programmes & activities including: 

​

• Life Skills & Personal Development
