You have some personal work to do while you are at Mee-Quam Youth Residence serving your sentence/detention. During the Case Management Meeting, an individualized plan will be developed with you. The plan will address those areas of your life that have resulted in your being sentenced to custody. They will become your goals to meet your needs. Staff will support you by arranging to have you involved in the programs that will meet your needs. Some of these programs, Mee-Quam staff are ‘expert’ at providing for you. Other programs that you may need will be arranged with the people who have the expertise in the community to give you what you need to support you in getting your life on track. When you leave Mee-Quam Youth Residence at the end of your sentence, you will have had the opportunity to learn new ways to manage your old problems of the past.

Examples of services that can be arranged to support your individual needs include:
