With a commitment from all at the Inner East Youth Project, in achieving the project aims, within the related or specific objectives we must emphasis that the commitment relates specifically to young people in the inner East Belfast area.  Therefore we must ensure that our work is targeted in this area, to assist this process we will be working towards "Partnership Agreements" with all agencies whom we work with.
