Got Your Back is Nottinghamshire Victim Care\\’s youth service which supports victims of crime aged 17 and under.<\/p>\n
Their vision is to ensure any child or young person experiencing victimisation in Nottinghamshire has access to support, tailored to their needs, when they need it.<\/p>\n
Their support is free, confidential and tailor-made to each individual. They provide emotional and practical support whether the crime has been reported to the police or not. This support can be delivered face-to-face or via remote methods depending on what the young person prefers.<\/p>\n
Their caseworkers have a variety of tools to help the young person to cope and recover:<\/p>\n
\tEmotional safety plans
\n \tGrounding techniques
\n \tAnxiety programmes
\n \tTimelines
\n \tWorry and Be You Jars
\n \tProcessing emotions
\n \tHouse of Safe
\n \tAnd many more…<\/p>\n
They work WITH young people to help them work out what they might need to move forward and often they work to support the wider family members too.<\/p>\n
If they feel they can\\’t provide the support needed, they will always signpost to a service that can.<\/p>\n
They also work in schools\/colleges via drop-in sessions and workshops to highlight victimisation and the consequences of crime.<\/p>\n
