Somethings have not changed.

Our commitment to community based support:The Junction is based within the communities it works in, we have an expanse of local knowledge, knowing our areas and the challenges that the children and young people who live there face.  The Junction has built a bank of experience of supporting and empowering the children, young people of these communities to overcome the barriers that they face.

Our commitment to holistic person centred support reflected in our values putting children and young people in control of their own support and enables us to:

• Work with children and young people to empower them to deal with the challenges they face, preventing escalation into crisis.
• Support children and young people with complex needs who are in crisis to achieve stabilisation, enabling them to begin to build a foundation to move on from.
• Provide a platform for promoting and building resilience, promoting emotional wellbeing, self efficacy and making life better for children, young people and their families.
