Many young people, especially but not limited to those from the ethnic minority, are struggling with identity, leading to under achievment in schools. This has led to an increase in NEET catagory, criminal exploitation  and county lines. ACAHU is a beacon of hope, leading a drive to recognise the increased diversity and it's challenges in MK and therefore the need to support all young people across the city to develop their sense of identity, culture, self-worth, confidence, belonging and develop practical life skills.
