ENGAGE EMPOWER EVOLVE

BUILDING POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS AND RESILIENCE THROUGH SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES

About

ABOUT

The Total Development Program (TDP) principals Vern Robateau & Blake Comerford leverage their high-profile local reputations and combined 30 years of experience in working with at-risk children to deliver a three-phase plan to provide innovative alternatives for residential care and development programs for vulnerable youth.

​

The TDP maximises impact driven social change by initiating early intervention of at-risk children to engage them in holistic care programs for reunification with community, culture, and family (where appropriate) and ultimately, successful independence.

Behind every behaviour is an unmet need

VISION

To create an inclusive world where every vulnerable young person knows that they matter, they are heard, and are needed for the good of all.

 

To foster an environment that encourages and nurtures the personal interests and talents of young people at risk to create a positive self-image, build confidence in their abilities, increase their resilience and hope for a bright future.

MISSION

To provide a new and innovative model of ‘Family Focused’ care to vulnerable youth in a safe, culturally sensitive, and structured residential environment. Heart centred care will build trust and address the core issues of every individual to heal and nurture them in a homely, stable setting.

 

Our priority is always to encourage the unique abilities and interests of each young person to re-engage them as valued, contributing members of society.
