RIVERTRACKS REFERRAL PROCESS

1

Expression of Interest

If you know a young person who you think could benefit from the program please start by giving Ahri a call on

Consideration

The RiverTracks team will consider EOIs according to our selection criteria.

3

Contact with referers

The RiverTracks team will make contact with referrers of young people who are selected as potential program participants to ask and answer any questions arising.
4

Contact with
young person

The RiverTracks youth worker will call the young person to speak with them and arrange to meet with them and the referrer if the young person would like them to attend. 

5

Advise

At the meeting the young person will be given more information about the RiverTracks program, how it operates and the opportunities it would offer. We will explain how RiverTracks would fit in as part of their education and how their continual attendance at school when not working with RiverTracks is encouraged. The young person will then be asked whether they want to be involved in RiverTracks or whether they need more time to decide.
6

Intake form

If the young person wants to take part in the program they will be given an intake form to complete with their parent/carer. If there are any issues inhibiting their selection for the program or questions arising from the intake form referrers will receive contact from RiverTracks.

Confirmation

RiverTracks will confirm the participants’ invitation to be part of the program with phone calls to the young person, parents and the referral maker.
