Taking an Upstream Approach to Preventing Homelessness and reducing reoffending
Wiltshire Council have recently created a new and exciting Homeless Early Intervention team focusing on supporting households identified as being at high risk of becoming threatened with homeless by providing upstream and pre‑preventative holistic support.
As a Criminal Justice lead, you'll have the chance to work from one of our hubs located in Trowbridge, Chippenham, or Salisbury as well as being expected to provide outreach advice and support in our communities across the county.
There will be opportunities to work in a variety of environments such as Wiltshire Probation offices, community drop‑in centres and customers' homes to target the support to the hardest to reach households in our community.
As a Criminal Justice Homeless Early Intervention Officer, you will provide vital advice and support to our clients who have been through the criminal justice system, empowering them to understand their tenure right, maintain their housing, and preventing homelessness.
From supporting with maximising income and budgeting, to preventing family exclusion by mediation, to connecting them with essential services.
You'll adopt a trauma informed approach and play a crucial role in integrating our customers back into the community and navigating them through the challenges of the current cost‑of‑living and housing crisis.
We're seeking candidates with an innovative and creative approach, capable of effectively handling challenging customers resistant to change.
