The THRIVE framework is a whole-system approach to improve mental health services for children and young people. It has been shown to support better outcomes by making services more efficient, more accessible and more focused on the wellbeing of children and their families.
Links to Participation:
Participation is a key enabler of the implementation of THRIVE, ensuring that children, young people and families are genuine partners in shaping decisions, services and system improvement. This supports a needs-led, strengths-based approach that is responsive to what matters most to them. A core principle of THRIVE is shared decision-making, which places the views, experiences and preferences of children, young people and families at the centre of their care, service design, delivery and evaluation.
Participation within different needs based groupings.
Thrive induction:
A THRIVE Induction pack (see right) has been developed to complement the THRIVE in person and online training offers, focusing on each needs based grouping. The induction pack provides a foundation of knowledge for all staff when they join Mindworks and aims to highlight THRIVE as ‘the way we work’, and complements the Participation Induction pack.
