The CHART program is an intervention program for young people. It helps the young person develop new skills, such as problem-solving and changing their thinking patterns which might lead them into trouble. They learn techniques which help them to pause and reflect before they act. The program also gives young people the chance to practice these skills.
CHART supports case plan goals by assisting the young person to:
understand beliefs that are supportive of offending behaviour
examine their motives and re-evaluate the potential consequences of their actions
develop the skills to find alternatives to offending.
CHART consists of modules that all young people in the community and in custody complete with their caseworker.
