Promoting the inclusion of lesser-heard voices in child protection, research, policy and practice.
“Jahnine and Nick understand what makes research meaningful and relevant for practitioners, and how to offer challenge and new thinking to support professionals and services safeguard young people who are less heard or visible. Resources they have written for us on male and Black female victims of child sexual abuse help social workers use Community Care Inform to address potential gaps in knowledge and practice. One of our most popular pages this year has been Listen Up’s guide to applying intersectionality when working with adolescents – Jahnine and Nick’s practice experience and accessible approach to theory and research make this a valuable addition to our site.” -Joanna Silman, Content Editor, Community Care Inform
“Reaching out to Jahnine was the best thing I could have done, she provided me with such valuable information, knowledge and skills around imbedding an intersectional approach into casework. All of which was keeping the Young Women at the centre of the conversation. I look forward to connecting with Listen Up Research in the near future. Invaluable!” – Nicole Walsh, Young Women’s Service Manager at Women & Girls Network
“The report Listen Up Research did for us was much appreciated. It was received ahead of time, was balanced and well referenced. Listen Up Research evidently took the time to consider how to present their thoughts in a way that would be easy for the panel and chair/author to navigate against the report. I appreciated the challenge and enquiry evident in the report and think it will help us to ensure that the quality we seek is there in the final draft. I hope that the Listen Up report will help the review panel be more specific in their analysis, conclusions and recommendations. This will lead to greater learning in the long term.” - Stephanie McBurney, Domestic and Sexual Violence Team Manager
