By offering early intensive help to vulnerable girls in open youth care, transfer to closed youth care can be prevented. Small-scale living offers insufficient protection for young girls who are vulnerable, which is why Fier, Levvel and Sterk Huis have developed an alternative: Intensive Care, Protection and Education. A small-scale facility with a high staffing level. This reports Skipr.
Within this intensive open form of help, there are two employees per four clients and care institutions are more likely to deploy specialized help. Education plays an important role in this.
Signals list
From research by Fier, Levvel and Sterk Huis shows that vulnerable girls can be recognized through certain signals. For example, being bullied for a long time, domestic violence and insecure attachment to parents are on a list of signals that have emerged from the study. The researchers ask anyone who suspects vulnerability to be vigilant.
