Participation of young people with developmental or behavioural disorders (2009/07 E)

The SER has unanimously adopted an advisory report on the participation of young people with developmental or behavioural disorders. In the report entitled ‘The benefits of a bespoke approach’, the SER stresses that to be able to participate in society, these young people require help that is tailored to their needs. The entire body of rules and facilities for these young people is too complex, so what is needed is a single coordinating professional who can guide a young person on his or her ‘trek through the institutions’. In the longer term, the Government must review ways of structurally improving the cohesion of the entire regime of rules and facilities.
