RADIUS CHILD AND YOUTH SERVICES

Published purpose

Through this project, Radius Child and Youth Services will enhance and expand the current Youth Dating Violence (YDV) Intervention Program. It will do so by accepting court-mandated clients as a new referral stream to its program as well as by expanding the program training to service providers in Nunavut, as a way to address gaps in services for Indigenous/Inuit youth, and all other relevant service providers (such as universities) who wish to implement their own YDV Intervention Program. These trainings will provide information about effective approaches based on the Risk Needs and Responsivity model for intervening with justice involved young people using violence within dating relationships.
