Wrap Around Care

Young people will have a learning and development mentor who will be a point of contact for pastoral and personal support. They will provide guidance, monitor and review progress and help set real and challenging targets to ensure the young people successfully complete their course and achieve positive progression. The programmes offered at RAISE will follow the learner journey to achievement and progression.

It is important that young people are happy and healthy and that they enjoy their time with us. We have created an environment where young people can feel safe and valued. We want to listen and actively encourage young people to get involved and to make suggestions on how to help improve the learning environment.

maslow’s hierarchy of needs

How this theory comes into Raise’s

Raise the youth believe in the principles of maslow’s hierachy of needs. Raise the youth always try and make sure people are fed- never hungry, feel safe and have a warm place to live and a positive place to learn, enjoy themselves and connect with others, feel valued, have a sense of belonging, and a place to learn, grow and express themselves.

maslow’s Pyramid

We want people to find their talents, dream, believe, plan, take action, and achieve their life goals.

Physiological Needs

These include the most basic needs that are vital to survival, such as the need for water, air, food, and sleep. Maslow believed that these needs are the most basic and instinctive needs in the hierarchy because all needs become secondary until these physiological needs are met.

Security Needs

These include needs for safety and security. Security needs are important for survival, but they are not as demanding as the physiological needs. Examples of security needs include a desire for steady employment, health insurance, safe neighborhoods, and shelter from the environment.

Social Needs

These include needs for belonging, love, and affection. Maslow considered these needs to be less basic than physiological and security needs. Relationships such as friendships, romantic attachments, and families help fulfill this need for companionship and acceptance, as does involvement in social, community, or religious groups.

Esteem Needs

After the first three needs have been satisfied, esteem needs becomes increasingly important. These include the need for things that reflect on self-esteem, personal worth, social recognition, and accomplishment.

Self-actualizing Needs

This is the highest level of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Self-actualizing people are self-aware, concerned with personal growth, less concerned with the opinions of others, and interested fulfilling their potential.
