This is the second of two articles inspired by the work of the late Mark Ylvisaker. The first focused on the general approach and how Sam Simpson put his ideas on identity reconstruction into practice with a client, PJ. This one details the ten aspects that define an Ylvisaker project. Emma Gale then demonstrates project work in practice with a group of adults with brain injury whose ages, needs and backgrounds are very different. They combine their talents in a way that raises money for charity, gives them a sense of achievement and greater awareness of their own strengths and support needs. Ashleigh Denman discusses individual project work carried out by an 18 year old client using a Goal-Obstacles-Plan-Do-Review format.
