Development of Life Skills in Wollert
Wollert is a young suburb, and a lot of our life skills work here is with young adults getting ready to live more independently. Cooking, money and travel are the three that come up most, and all three are best learned in your own kitchen and on your own bus route.
Development of life skills is Capacity Building funding, which means it is bought to change something rather than to keep it as it is. The measure of it working is that you need less of it later, so it is written as goals with steps rather than as hours of help. You keep the progress notes, and they are the evidence you take into your next plan review.
