Journeys

The programme supports women aged 18+ involved within the criminal justice system. We are now in our fourth year of delivering this programme working in partnership with PBNI Inspire Model, NIACRO, WSN, Women’s Centres and many more.

The main objective is to assist unemployed women to develop personal skills and build support networks and resilience. The women have many complex issues and working in partnership with the other organisations means the benefit from a holistic approach whereby they are supported in all areas of development.

 

Think of it this way… “we cannot control what happens in life - but we can choose our responses and develop our personal resilience to handle situations or events To do that we need to have a better understanding of our emotionsJourneys programme will look at different approaches such as emotions - behaviours - communication and our resilience to deal with the pressures that at times are coming from all anglesIf you invest time and energy into ‘you’ you will get the results

We are now developing a similar programme for young men in leaving prison and Belfast City Council are funding the pilot programme.
