If <strong>New</strong> <strong>Zealand</strong> <strong>Police</strong> and aligned agencies want to achieve long term crime reduction and improved road<br />
safety the key will be to invest in projects designed to influence social culture through our communities'<br />
young people.<br />
Over the last 12 months Palmerston North <strong>Police</strong> have worked closely with representatives from<br />
Education, Child Youth and Family, and Health to strengthen the nationally mandated YOTS 7<br />
collaboration.<br />
This has resulted in the completion of a strategic plan which sets in place the priorities of the collaborative.<br />
There is a strong alignment between the YOTS strategic plan and this document.<br />
Year One<br />
• Develop partnerships and strategy through the YOTS collaborative<br />
• Through the YOTS collaborative explore Youth at Risk project opportunities<br />
• Seek to align Youth Services with Child Abuse Team and the Family Violence Co-ordinator to<br />
deal with common clients and/or 'at risk' families<br />
• Build effective referral and follow-up processes to ensure risk clients/families receive<br />
appropriate support or intervention.<br />
• Ensure Youth education programmes are offered to and delivered in 'high needs' schools<br />
Year Two and Three<br />
• Align and support Youth at Risk projects to Korowai Kahui strategy<br />
