It's like being a parent, with the added dimension of a young person who has experienced some form of trauma. You'll help to set clear boundaries and routine within the household but there will be lots of time for play and fun with the young people, encouraging them to be curious and discover different interests and trying new things with them. You'll carry out responsibilities such as preparing meals, accompanying the young people to medical appointments, taking them to school, and after school activities such as swimming, football, or dance class. The main aim for the colleagues in the home is to establish a safe home environment for the young person to thrive.
