This document discusses key work and its importance in working with young people. It provides several reasons for conducting key work, including developing trusting relationships with young people, allowing young people to feel listened to and express their emotions, and supporting young people in making decisions about their future. The objectives of key work are to produce sessions that are smart (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound), demonstrate the capacity for evaluation, and help the key worker understand their role. Sample key works are presented and proper key working techniques like focusing on needs, attachment theory, and continuity of care are explored.
