It does this through consultation with youth and family services, the multicultural sector, state and local government, and multicultural young people.

  4. About the HSS Youth Support and Coordination Project • Young people who come to NSW as humanitarian entrants have specific needs that need to be addressed in order for them to settle well • Settlement workers need to be supported to work effectively with young people.

  8. Why focus on young people from refugee backgrounds? Young people from refugee backgrounds: • Particular needs and circumstances are often overlooked in the broader settlement and youth sectors. • Need a targeted response as part of service delivery in order to support their participation and engagement in Australian society. (MYAN Australia, 2012)

  9. The Framework Framework for thinking about the needs and experiences of young people from refugee backgrounds

  10. A targeted approach to young people from refugee backgrounds • A strengths-based approach • Integrated Case Management Model • Assessment Tools • Good practice guide

  11. Recognising strengths • Recognising and acknowledge what they can do rather than focus on what they can’t • Strengths based, solution focused approaches enhance the capacities of individuals, groups, families, neighbourhoods and communities to deal with their own challenges. Empowerment results from being treated with respect and having strengths acknowledged and enhanced. • This approach orients them to focus first on listening and identifying the person’s strengths and resources, to understand clearly their goals and aspirations for the future and to then support them in addressing any barriers or blockages.

  12. Recognising strengths • International and cross-cultural knowledge • Multilingual skills • Adaptable and resourceful • Strong desire to achieve and succeed • Positive and hopeful attitude • Resilient. (UNHCR, 2011: 5)
