Integrated young people's support service

Integrated Young People's Support Services (IYPSS)

Integrated Young People’s Support Services are about re-shaping services designed to support young people including the Youth Service, Youth Offending Service, and Connexions in partnership with agencies and key partners to provide a fully integrated approach to service delivery for the benefit of young people across Walsall.  

IYPSS will:

  • focus on action and making a difference
  • be committed to improving outcomes for young people, families and the community
  • put the active involvement of young people at its centre
  • provide flexible services based on needs
  • serve everyone aged 9-19 (up to 25 for some), with special attention for those most in need
  • build on existing good practice and employ a highly skilled and effective workforce who enjoy working with young people

And it will:

  • use integrated ways of planning, designing and working together
  • be locally based in neighbourhoods – always nearby
  • make good use of its resources – people, places and knowledge
