Abstract	The aim of this research is to investigate what kind of actions and initiatives that have been taken in the organization KOC St.-Gregorius in Gentbrugge, Belgium that helped to keep professional adults loyal to the method of LSCI. KOC St.-Gregorius was chosen as a model for good practice because of several reasons: The organization was involved with LSCI from the start of LSCI in Belgium and in Europe, starting with the initiative of OC Nieuwe Vaart in Ghent which is now a National Training Site (D'Oosterlinck, 2005). We speak about 2002. It is a huge organization. Huge organizations frequently struggle with implementation of new methods and with change in general; more than smaller organizations. The organization treats and takes care of children and youth from 3 to 21 years old with a wide range of handicaps or disorders. Regardless the type of disorder, LSCI is the main method for professionals to deal with children and youth in conflict or crisis (Long et al., 2001; Fecser, 2009, Darjan et al., 2014). The research aims to find out which actions towards fidelity have been taken so far; what is important for an action, activity or initiative to lead to LSCI-fidelity and which opportunities still have to be taken in the future. For this purpose, we used a questionnaire with both closed-ended and opened-ended responses. There were investigated the opinions of 59 members of the personnel. The findings and the conclusions of this study offer suggestions on how to stimulate the dedication for change and improvement, and the fidelity for proven efficient method in approaching troubled children and the youth.
