Afghan Association Paiwand in partnership with Forest YMCA provides Connexions personal advice to young people not in education, employment or training (NEET). The project seeks to tackle the following issues in the boroughs of Waltham Forest, Haringey, Enfield and Barnet:
- To reduce the number of young people aged 16-19 who are not in education, employment or training (NEET).
- To reduce the number of care leavers who become NEET.
- To reduce the teenage conception rate and the number of 16-19 years old mothers who become NEET.
- To increase the participation of 13-19 year olds in education.
- To drive improvements in behaviour/reductions in crimes committed by young people.
- To ensure improvements in outcomes for minority ethnic backgrounds.
