Name Youth agreement
Provider Career Connect
While refreshing its participation strategy, charity Career Connect has developed a youth agreement that places young people’s voices at the heart of its work.
The agreement sets out a range of principles for the charity’s staff to follow and will be used by staff to initiate conversations with young people about the charity.
Career Connect provides employment and training services to young people in schools and wider communities, with a specific focus on making these services accessible for people from disadvantaged backgrounds.
The charity says the youth agreement will provide young people with a better understanding of what the charity does. It also hopes that it will reassure those hesitant to engage with them, since it promotes the importance of young people’s opinions, and safeguards their rights and welfare.
