The purpose of the Youth Diversionary Activities (YDA) Programme is:

• To engage young people who are at risk of or engaged in anti-social behaviour into a range of positive activities.  The programme also aims to prevent young people from engaging in gang activity and to address community cohesion issues at a local level.

Single Referral Route - For Young People who need Specific Support

Diverting young people from crime and anti-social behaviour is key to reducing the number of young people offending within Sandwell. Sandwell Council together with key partners has devised a single referral form to access a wide range of activities for children and young people at risk of anti-social behaviour or offending.

Each intervention is tailored to meet needs identified and cases are discussed at a multi-agency panel in order that the most appropriate services are accessed.

If a child or young person needs this support please complete a single route referral form.
