Helping Families to take positive steps forward
GOALS helps parents to build their confidence and abilities to positively parent their children. They learn tools and techniques that enable them to take sensible and positive action for the future and for themselves and their families.
GOALS is a common sense programme, (but common sense is not always common practice). Sometimes we all need a refresher course in how to do the right thing and how to be a good role model to our children.
Testimonial from Judith at A4e:
"I have been delivering GOALS training to Lone Parents since September and have found it most helpful. Most of the clients come to me with huge issues and I have found GOALS a very useful and successful tool to enable them to look forward in their lives and see themselves as people in their own right and not someone’s “ex” or solely “a parent”.
GOALS is delivered in the early stages of the six week “in house” training, so that the clients with newly gained confidence and self-esteem can complete the rest of their training with a real determination to find employment and create a better future for themselves and their families."
The Government’s focus on getting people, especially Lone Parents, back to work has given organisations a major challenge and opportunity.
Many organisations are already using the GOALS System to change their clients' attitude about themselves and their future. If clients can be inspired to want to work and have the confidence to believe in themselves, then employment can follow very quickly.
Many Lone Parents, often facing multiple barriers to working, have settled for a life on benefits, not because they are happy with that comfort zone, but because they do not see an alternative. GOALS helps people to see that their lives can be so much better by taking positive steps forward now.
Building this attitude-changing, step-by-step approach into your programmes will create great opportunities for your clients and transform your outcomes.
The GOALS System
GOALS has proven successful at helping hundreds of thousands of people in the UK and the US - including some of the most resistant and hardest-to-place - to find and hold down jobs. GOALS is not just a quick fix. Through its Ten Keys to Success, the programme deals with the psychology of unemployment to help the unemployed person get not just a job, but also the foundations of a career - and a foothold for life.
By helping people define for themselves who they are and what they want to do with their lives, GOALS makes it easier to persuade them to get a job right away - whatever it may be - as a step toward better jobs to come.
Keeps people off benefits
Those who take part in GOALS come away with the get-up-and-go spirit - as well as the self-sufficiency and practical abilities - that make it more likely for them to find a job, a better job and ideally a career. More of them come off benefits and fewer return.
Testimonial from Ann at Jobcentre Plus
7 out of 9 lone parents have moved into work after attending the Goals course, then the pre-recruitment training course in Dundee!!! Superb!
