Guidebook & Walking Tour

Download: Rough Guide to Emerging Practices

From July to August 2016, we worked alongside five teams of practitioners at four drop-in centres to try out fresh practice with street-involved youth and adults.

Over six-weeks, we watched as practitioners’ self-efficacy grew and they became more and more comfortable with giving new roles, props, scripts, and settings a go.

And take a look at photos from our Walking Tour, where we took frontline workers, managers, and CEOs on a visit to each coaching site!
