Aim
-
Sova are working with a new project called Transform. Our main aim is to offer support to those who have completed the Hidden Difficulty Questionnaire. The HDQ will highlight those who have a low/medium/high tendency of Dyslexia/Dyspraxia/Autism/ADHD. It will be an 18 month contract till March 2010 and we will be based in three establishments. These are HMP/YOI Drake Hall, HMP Hewell and HMYOI Brinsford.
Transform will offer the following service:
� Provide information on how to cope with their hidden difficulty
� To develop strategies and activities that will enable them to reduce the negative impact of their hidden difficulty.
� Support them to gain Employment or Training upon release
� Job Club
� Offer support and guidance when completing job and college application forms
� Confidence building
� Offering understanding of how to deal with their hidden tendency and how to manage the obstacles faced in life
� A Mentor to support them whilst in custody or upon release
