ACTION
A charity working with homeless young people in the West Midlands has spent the last decade developing a psychologically informed environment (PIE) for its staff and practitioners.
St Basil’s whole organisation approach uses psychological theories, including trauma-informed principles, to inform its practice which supports thousands of vulnerable young people across the region.
As both a charity and a housing association, St Basil’s places hundreds of young people aged 16 to 25 in its supported accommodation schemes.
Furthermore, its work with partner agencies in Birmingham, Coventry, Sandwell, Solihull, Walsall, Warwickshire, Worcestershire and Wyre Forest, means around 1,500 young people are housed annually in 33 supported accommodation schemes.
