Aim Support Worker jobs

Our model of Care is a relationship-based approach that is underpinned by the theoretic methodology of Cornell University’s Therapeutic Crisis Intervention system, and further supported by attachment theories. We look at the attachment difficulties/disorders and trauma young people have endured throughout their lives and how these experiences may affect their progress moving forward, our approach is inclusive of the young people, in creating positive changes in their lives.
