Produced by The National Youth Agency (NYA) for the department, Creating a Sense of Belonging details the commissioning arrangements that are most likely to prove effective in delivering positive activities for young people (PAYP), the issues around service delivery and guidance on monitoring and evaluation. Case studies of effective provision are included throughout.
Fifteen local authorities with high levels of youth crime were targeted to receive additional funding during 2008/09 to test innovative approaches to divert young people away from involvement in crime including gang involvement and antisocial behaviour, through engagement in positive activities.
The NYA worked on behalf of the DCSF to support these 15 local authority areas and identify best practice. The guidance draws on their experience and will assist councils in effectively targeting their PAYP funding on those most in need.
