What We Do
Our work is based on three elements we believe are key to achieving lasting positive change:
-
Perception: Understanding and using the powerful influence we have on our thoughts and experiencing how “making friends with our brain” can create a chain of positive ripple effects in our lives.
-
Practice: Building expertise and confidence through "doing" and keeping at it .
-
Peers: Feeling accompanied and supported by others on a similar journey.
Based on these principles, our support offer comprises 4 components:
In group and individual coaching sessions, we work together with our participants to tackle fears and inhibitions, build a positive self-image, improve mental wellbeing and develop new visions on their life. See more details on our coaching approach here.
Through the joint implementation of a time-bound practical project for a local charity, our participants refresh their existing skills, learn new ones, create positive impact for others, build confidence and develop resilience to challenges in a safe setting. Find out more here.
​
3. Work experience
Supported by coaching and mentoring, our participants apply themselves in the job market, taking the next steps in becoming ready for work. In parallel, we practice hands-on job search and application skills, such as CV building and interview practice.
​
​
4. Peer mentoring
Participants get matched with a peer mentor who accompanies their transition back into work. Peer mentoring will continue beyond the duration of the programme.
