  • Do you know a child between 8 and 16 years of age?
  • Are they frequently getting into trouble?
  • Are you concerned about their friends and their influence?
  • Are they experiencing difficulties at school, e.g. truancy, bullying, exclusion?
  • Are there any concerns about them using alcohol, cigarettes or drugs?

STEPP may be able to help.
