Chloe had been happily attending CEDA’s youth services for many years. She has grown up with strong attachments and experiences extreme anxiety in the face of change and transition. As an adult, several attempts to transition Chloe into new living arrangements and other services were unsuccessful and Chloe was struggling to step forward into her adult life. Collaborative work between CEDA’s Youth Service and Activity Hub resulted in a transition where Chloe’s trusted people were able to be with her and support her to slowly form new bonds and connections on her own terms. Chloe is now settled and thriving in the Activity Hub, making friends, having fun and learning. Being valued and supported in ways that work for her has shown Chloe that change can be a positive experience. Chloe’s wellbeing is much improved and her mum reports that on CEDA days she is more enthusiastic about getting up and out of the house than she has been for many years.
