Creative Community Alternatives

About the Service

CDYS provides a high-level prevention / intervention model aimed at young people who are either on the edge of alternative care or currently in alternative care due to complex factors that may include neglect, parental separation, attachment issues, alcohol and/or drug misuse, mental health and economic disadvantage.

We work intensively in a one-to-one setting with young people and families to provide tailored, flexible and timely interventions to meet children’s identified needs within their family, community or care setting.  

Having access to consistent and resourced support allows for the provision of home-based supports, intensive services to address and support challenges with emotional difficulties and access to positive activities and local resources in their communities.

This is a Tusla  funded project.  The CDYS and the CCA team work very closely with Tusla to support young people and their families.
