About the CPD course
Professionals working with young people pay a vital role in preventing youth homelessness. This training will equip professionals who work with young people every day to recognise and respond to early indicators and associated risks. The training is aimed at all professionals who may have contact with young people and will be particularly relevant for those with specific responsibilities for safeguarding and student support.
We work in local communities across the country to prevent and relieve the impact of homelessness on people’s lives. We prioritise young people, who are among the most vulnerable in society, and especially those who have previously had traumatic experiences. We are passionate about the difference we make.
The Depaul Group was founded in 1989 in response to the growing number of homeless London youth sleeping rough on the streets. Today, Depaul International charities work around the world, going where the need is greatest.
In the UK, we run services in the North East, South Yorkshire, Milton Keynes and Greater Manchester as well as London and the South East. We also manage and accredit the Nightstop Network of community volunteer hosting services, which operates in more than 30 communities around the UK.
