The programmes of intervention for Children and Young People are currently organised under 3 main Priorities
*Understanding
*Transition
*Healing
Understanding
This involves developing an understanding of what is happening with some of our children and young people and why. We begin the process by hosting a series of ‘house debates’ and asking you to contribute to the relevant blogs. http://rootstofruitsorg.blogspot.com/ The outcomes and understandings we arrive at will be written up in a series of short papers. It is our intention to gain understanding from a number of view points and investigate whether the lessons learnt could inform the teaching of subjects in schools like PSHE, Citizenship and SEAL. http://rootstofruitsorg.blogspot.com/2009/03/children-and-young-people.html
Transition
This is about promoting and enhancing young people’s personal, social, emotional, economic health and wellbeing in order to help raise aspirations and educational attainment, self-worth and confidence, empowering them to make positive informed and healthy life choices to succeed in work and life
There is a need not just to work with the young people themselves but to work with their environment. Therefore the Transition priority is further broken down in to 3 strands:-
Young people in transition to independence and adulthood.

Healing
This priority is aimed at less than 10% of young people. It is about helping thm, to identify pathways and providing support for them to reposition themselves away from destructive lifestyles so that they can become responsible and respected members of their communities.
The Healing priority currently has 2 strands
*Young people who have a supportive network of family and friends
*Young people who currently do not have a support network around them.
