Salus Intensive Mentoring Service
17 September 2021
Salus can now offer Intensive Mentoring to children and young people aged 10 to 16 years across the whole of Kent.
The service is fully funded by Headstart and Kent Reconnect until the end of 2021
The aim of the programme is to improve the emotional health, wellbeing and resilience of children and young people.
It will be particularly helpful to those not accessing specialist services but experiencing increased anxiety, poor mental health or social isolation as a result of the pandemic
Salus adopts a strengths-based approach to supporting children, young people, and their families. Using a range of evidence-based approaches and tools (such as the FRIENDS resilience programme) and through the development of a trusted relationship with a talented mentor, we work to understand individual needs and implement an action plan to address these with the young person and their family
Following assessment of need, the mentor will offer approximately six to eight weeks of direct support.
It is intended that each young person will have been given the opportunity to have a resilience conversation and complete a resilience self-reflection assessment prior to referral but, if it is not possible, we can do this for you.
A copy of the referral form can be found on the Salus Group website
