Role

Mission Statement

Our long-term vision is to end youth homelessness. Our more immediate mission is to ensure that every young person in Scotland has access to expert youth specific services to assist them to avoid, resolve and move on from

homelessness, making it rare, brief, and non-recurring.

Context

move on from homelessness.

Working directly with young people in their home or within a community setting the Project Worker will support young people to secure/maintain a permanent home, improve their independent living skills, access other services,

manage finances and engage with resources within their communities.

The Project Worker will offer line management, guidance, and support to Support Assistants and volunteers. The Project Workers are responsible for completing support plans and risk assessments and acting as co-ordinator for any key people involved in the care and support of young people.
