MACS was established in 1990 to provide a range of services for young people. Since then, we have succeeded in developing an approach which is effective and sustainable.
The values and ethos of our organisation, particularly our approach to participation, are at the centre of this success.
We work with children and young people (aged 6 –25) who haven’t had a fair deal. They may be experiencing homelessness, substance abuse, self-harm, mental health issues, leaving care or they are generally at risk.
Our core services are
- Supported Housing
- Floating Support
- Wellbeing Support
- Therapeutic Community for Children
- Participation
