**Targeted Youth Work Vacancy - 37 hours a week in the Early Help Restormel Team**

**About the role**

Targeted Youth Workers can make a real difference to the young people they support. Their work seeks to promote young people’s personal and social development and enable them to have a voice. Youth work gives young people the confidence and life skills they need to live, learn, work and achieve. It offers young people safe spaces to explore their identity, experience decision-making, and increase their confidence.

Targeted Youth Workers (TYW) work as part of multi-disciplinary teams to support vulnerable young people and their families at times of increased need and difficulty. In Cornwall we take a relational and strengths-based approach. We are an outstanding authority with a proven track record of building on family and young people’s strengths

TYW’s are expected to hold a JNC Youth Work qualification or a Secondary Teaching qualification with some experience of working informally with young people. TYW Workers will carry out assessments with children and families, devise plans of intervention, undertake direct work.
