Free resources
Over the last ten years IYM has worked with over one hundred and fifty front line providers to devise tenancy-training sessions. These materials are freely available for download and were formally known as It's Your Move Workshops.
All the sessions are available as 34 modules. Each module contains a session plan, at least three short 20 minute activites and supplementary resources and handouts (appendicies). The modules can be delivered in anything from 20 minutes to 2 hours, depending on your requirements.
The modules reflect the Supporting People Outcomes framework and can be submitted as evidence of working toward independant living.
