Our members are really at the heart of what we do at Youth Access. With this in mind, our new strategy has been developed with and for our members and the young people they serve.
Guided by a range of research and insights, we have what we hope is a really effective strategy that will guide us to achieve our vision of ensuring that all young people can access free support on their journey into adulthood from community-based advice and counselling services that respect their rights and meet their individual needs.
To do this we have developed 3 strategic goals:
- Increase access
Youth information, advice and counselling services with sufficient capacity can be accessed by young people from all local authority areas - Drive equity
YIACS engage with and access more young people from worst-served groups - Improve experience
YIACS are designed and run effectively according to evidence, good practice and young people’s voice
