What our young people request from our workers:
Young people across YSAS have spoken out and given feedback about the qualities that best describe a good YSAS worker:
A good worker takes the time to understand your interests and doesn’t treat everyone the same.
Young people believe that a good YSAS worker is empathetic and good at actively listening in a non-judgmental way, is relatable, down-to-earth and able to build trust and rapport in a consistent manner. It takes time to trust someone, but it’s worth it when you know they’ve got your back. Young people have also raised that genuine human connection is an important quality, being authentically human, while having a holistic, flexible, and adaptable approach that considers the entire context of a young person’s life and their intersectionality. It’s about making sure workers don’t just tick boxes but genuinely want to see us thrive
Regardless of where they are based or what position a worker has, everything we do at YSAS is about young people and their families.
