This week we were grateful to Melanie Redman for writing a blog for the SCCR website http://scottishconflictresolution.org.uk/blog/ on the subject of family re connection and mediation in relation to reducing youth homelessness.
What was important for me was that Melanie highlighted that its not always about getting young people to return home - sure this is an option if that’s in everyone’s best interests, but sometimes its not. The work we do at Cyrenians is about improving relationships and family connections.
What are other people’s views on the use of mediation to reduce youth homelessness?
