The Northern Beaches Project (NBP) is an early intervention model which identifies youth at risk of homelessness, school disengagement and other complex inter-related issues. This project is what we need the logo for. It is based in a community of schools and services collaboration, which integrates support from schools and agencies and works with young people and their families where and when needed. It is able to offer a youth focused and family centred approach. The direct benefit for the Northern Beaches community will be that many young people who have issues at home and school will be able to access greater support from an interdisciplinary team of youth, family, education and employment, disability, mental health and drug and alcohol professionals. The project is geared towards preventing youth homelessness and school disengagement.
