Delivered by: St Giles Trust

This session focuses on the critical moment when a practitioner first reaches a young person affected by violence, exploitation or serious harm. Whether that contact takes place in a hospital, custody suite, school, community setting or family home, the first response can either open a door or close it.

Drawing on St Giles’ experience of trusted relationships and crisis intervention, the session will explore what helps young people feel safe enough to engage, why disclosure is rarely straightforward, and how practitioners can use moments of crisis to build trust, reduce harm and support longer-term change.
