Focus on strength...plan for need

 

ONE 21

Initiated in 2005, one21 is an individual, independent Life Skills Program where the participants work closely with their case managers to set life goals and decide how best to achieve them. This becomes theirPErson Centred Plan (PCP). Participants have the option of participating in group activities and aspects of current programs or creating their own. One21 is designed to transition individuals into the adult world. If funded by the Department of Human Services DHS participants have three years to achieve this. However, many people may achieve this earlier.

Life Skills for Life's Thrills

  one21 is ideal for young adults with a disability who are already quite    independent. Whether participants need full or part time support, one21 is  flexible enough to change with them and provide just the right amount of  support to help them reach their goals.


Setting Goals

one21 case managers are skilled in assisting young adults to plan and to gain life skills for life's thrills. Examples of goals include:

  • Get a driver's license                     
  • Get a job
  • Access Further Education
  • Learn how to use a computer
  • Learn how to live independently or become more independent
  • Gain confidence
  • Make friends and build networks
  • Access community services and recreation facilities
  • Get active and take up a sport
  • Get creative
  • Travel overseas
  • Learn camping skills

Together, the participant and case manager find activities, classes, excursions or investigate/develop alternative programs that best suit the participant's needs.

One21 is funded by the Futures For Young Adults (FYA) initiative of the Victorian Government Department of Human Services (DHS). The cost to the individual alters with each program and whether it is full time, part time, in or out of hours. Some trips, camps and activities incur extra cost and are optional.

Fee for service can be arranged for those individuals not funded by the DHS.
