6 months ago
The primary focus of this role is to implement a mentoring program within HMP/YOI Feltham and the surrounding community, specifically targeting children and young adults. The goal is to foster resilience in this demographic, ultimately reducing the likelihood of future offending behavior.
The role entails providing support to incarcerated children and young adults, aiding them in dealing with past experiences of victimization and trauma. By addressing these issues, the aim is to mitigate the risk of violence and further criminal activity.
Additionally, the role involves training YOI staff to better recognize and respond to instances of victimization and trauma, as well as equipping victim support service personnel to effectively assist juvenile offenders. A key aspect of the role is providing ongoing mentoring support to individuals transitioning back into the community post-release or post-court appearance.
The position will require flexibility, particularly in dealing with the intricacies of cases involving individuals on remand or nearing potential release or court dates
