In today’s world, fostering healthy and respectful relationships is more crucial than ever. The Engage Programme, commissioned by Somerset Council and facilitated by the You Trust stands at the forefront of promoting positive relationship behaviours and supporting individuals in transforming their interactions for the better.
Understanding the Engage Programme
The Engage Programme is a multi-week scheme that offers a supportive pathway for individuals aged 18 and over who are looking to enhance their relationship dynamics. This initiative is also available to adolescents showing challenging behaviours towards parents, aiming to intervene early and promote healthier family interactions.
Core Objectives
At its core, the Engage Programme focuses on empowering participants to recognise and modify behaviours that may impact their relationships negatively. Through personalised support plans and collaborative efforts with community partners, the programme addresses various aspects of relationship dynamics, including communication skills, conflict resolution, and fostering respect.
Comprehensive Support Approach
Participants in the Engage Programme benefit from a range of support options tailored to their needs. This includes one-on-one sessions with dedicated workers and group interventions facilitated by experienced professionals from the service and other local agencies. These sessions are designed to provide practical tools and strategies for participants to implement positive changes in their relationships.
Accessibility and Flexibility
Recognising the diverse needs of participants, the Engage Programme offers flexible service delivery. Whether through face-to-face group sessions held across Somerset or individual support sessions, the programme ensures accessibility to support services that fit into participants’ schedules and preferences.
Promoting Community Well-being
By promoting positive relationship behaviours and supporting behaviour change, the Engage Programme contributes to building stronger, more resilient communities. It aligns with Somerset Council’s commitment to enhancing community well-being through innovative and inclusive programs.
