Funded Activity Summary

Young people and adversity: Stories of resourcing and resourcefulness. This project aims to explore how young people with complex needs can secure the resources they need. Despite recent investments in youth services, many young people with complex needs still struggle to secure resources. Understanding how to better resource these young people is essential if we are to improve their wellbeing and outcomes. Drawing on the life stories of disadvantaged young people, the project aims to provide new evidence on the way they understand, approach, and use formal and informal resources in the context of changing circumstances. This evidence is designed to drive the development of services that are responsive to young people’s needs, cultivate their capacities for resourcefulness, and complement the other resources they have available.
