**About the Role**

**Brief Intervention Service**

The Brief Intervention Service works with children, young people and their families for up to six months. Our brief interventions will support children, young people and their families to create change - through co-produced child and family assessments, family led plans, Family Space Clinics and a range of community based services.

There is strong leadership in the Service and social workers benefit from small teams, regular supervision and a caseload that allows them to spend time with children and young people building relationships and building on their strengths and those of the wider family network.

To support you in creating change for families you will be connected with a range of specialist workers including: a Domestic Abuse Specialist Social Worker, a Housing Specialist, a SEN Social Worker, a Substance Misuse Worker and a NRPF Social Worker, a Practice Specialist Social Worker and a Family Therapist.
