Anger management
We all know what anger is, and we've all felt it: whether as a fleeting annoyance or as full-fledged rage. Anger is a completely normal, usually healthy, human emotion. But when it gets out of control and turns destructive, it can lead to problems problems at work, in your personal relationships, and in the overall quality of your life. And it can make you feel as
though you're at the mercy of an unpredictable and powerful emotion.

Victim awareness Session
Victim Awareness is a session focusing on the impact crime has on the victim and on the community. Most offenders never stop to consider the serious effects their crimes have on their victims and other related individuals. The session is designed to increase
the participants’ awareness of crime and its victims, and to introduce new concepts.
Antisocial Behavior Orders training
A beginner’s guide to ASBOS Antisocial Behavior Orders - more commonly known as ASBOS were introduced in April 1999 under the provisions of the Crime and Disorder Act 1998. They were later strengthened by the Police Reform Act 2002 and the Anti
Social Behavior Act 2003, The session will look at the different type of ASBO and the penalty.
Prison Visits
GOYA conduct monthly prison visit as part of our crime diversion scheme with young people in Ealing.
The majority of young people attending the project have been identified as being at risk of offending. Many of those who visit the Crime Diversion Scheme are already committing offences and are known to police, youth offending teams (YOTs) and courts.
A percentage of young people are referred to the project as a last measure before a custodial sentence is enforced.
The unique part is that it is the inmates themselves who work with the young people and gain valuable qualifications at the same time. Specialist providers deliver NVQ level 2&3 training together with Child Protection training to enable safe and effective working practice. Inmates also take part in professionally run theatre training sessions and use performing arts to communicate with the young people attending the events.
The benefits for the inmates are enormous; many receive a recognised NVQ qualification which holds real value when seeking paid employment after release.
For the young people that take part in the project it is a wake up call to a possible road that lies ahead for them.
The day-long workshops demonstrate the harsh reality of prison life and inmates give a harrowing detailed account of how they ended up inside. Young people take part in a range of interactive activities and discussions aimed at helping them to choose a life other than crime.
