Diversionary Support Team Worker

2 weeks ago


Sand, United Kingdom Peterborough City Council Full time

Peterborough City Council are pleased to announce, as part of recent government Turnaround funding, they are launching early intervention projects to divert young people away from offending.

This role is fixed term until March 2025.

The Diversionary Programme will assess, deliver interventions and divert young people, aged 10-17, who are not yet convicted or warned in relation to a criminal offence, but are identified as being at risk of offending in the future.

This is an exciting opportunity for a dynamic and motivated individual to be part of a new programme that is expected to last for 2 years. As the Diversionary Support Team Worker, you will assess and provide intervention to young people who meet the criteria for the project. This work will involve engaging with both the young people and their families.

The Diversionary Programme aims to achieve the following:

- achieve positive outcomes for children with the ultimate aim of preventing them going on to offend;
- build on work already done to ensure all children on the cusp of the youth justice system are consistently offered a needs assessment and the opportunity for support;
- improve the socio-emotional, mental health and wellbeing of children;
- improve the integration and partnership working between YOTs and other statutory services to support children.

Training will be provided in areas such as motivational interviewing, Triple P parenting and trauma informed practice.

For an informal discussion regarding the role then please contact Michelle Owen

This role is fixed term until March 2025.

We are proud to serve the diverse communities of Cambridgeshire/Peterborough and want our workforce to reflect this diversity, which we believe is beneficial for our employees, the organisation and the communities we serve.
