Would you like to make a difference to children and young people’s lives in Havering? We are looking for a Targeted Youth Justice Practitioner to join our busy team. You will be passionate about wanting to help young people overcome some of the difficulties that they face through our relationship-based approach. Working with multi-agency colleagues in the YJS your focus is on delivering out of court interventions and diversion in a ‘whole’ family model.

**Main purpose of the role**:
You will join us in taking a Child First and trauma informed approach in promoting supportive family relationships, healthy lifestyles, reduce re-offending and diverting children from the criminal justice system. Working in partnership with colleagues from across the Integrated Adolescent Safeguarding Service to support young people that face contextual harms such as exploitation, missing, or crime. Aiming to build resilience with the young person and their family you will have knowledge relating to the issues faced by young people at risk of committing crime, bullying, peer pressure and isolation; and to intervene in their lives to minimise these risks.

Being Child First means promoting the voice, views and positive images of young people; advocating on behalf of young people at professionals meetings, ensure that their wishes and feelings are taken into account; and thinking of them as a whole person not just their behaviour. We need to motivate families to be part of the solution to the risky situations young people place themselves in around offending and going missing from home. You will have experience in successfully assessing, planning, delivering and reviewing intervention plans that take account of the complex lives young people live and bring positive change.
