The Power of Language

Workshop • Abianda

About the CPD course

We explore the language that may be used in relation to young women and girls affected by gangs and county lines - "streetwise"; "hard to engage"; "difficult" etc. We share young women's reflections on how this kind of language influences their experience of working with professionals. We explore how language creates power in the context of attendees' organisations; and how we can influence culture and society through our use of language.

Abianda is a social enterprise that works with young women affected by gangs, and the professionals that work with them. We offer one-to-one, group work and employment opportunities to gang-affected young women. And for professionals we offer training and support so they can work more confidently and effectively with gang-affected young women.
