This Info Sheet, written by Ruth Kerracher, shares some practical tips on how to further develop participative practice in your work.
These tips have come directly from members of STARR, Youth Just Us and individuals who have shared their wisdom and insight in the development of CYCJ’s participation strategy. STARR are Scotland’s only volunteer group of members with lived experience of secure care who help advise, influence, inform and challenge secure care and Youth Just Us are the youth-led steering group behind Staf and CYCJ’s participation ‘Youth Justice Voices’ project, funded by the Life Changes Trust, which seeks to creatively amplify the voices of care and justice experienced young people (aged 16-25) to influence national change.
