Me and My Safety Net: Safety Planning for Children and Young People
‘My Safety Plan’ has been designed to support children and young people with negotiating big emotions and feelings.
This is the perfect plan to create alongside the child or young person so they know what to do if they are ever at personal risk, such as wanting to hurt themselves or feeling down.
How could this resource be used?
- To support emotional regulation and personal safety.
- To support emotional literacy.
- To support self-regulation.
- To support a child 1:1.
