This is an exciting opportunity to work in an innovative trauma-informed team, who are committed to promoting a culture of co-production with the people using the service and proactively addressing the experiences of marginalised groups in the criminal justice system. The Inclusion and Involvement service (I&I) was co-developed in partnership with service users and Probation Service London (PSL) in line with desistance principles as part of the Offender Personality Disorder (OPD) Pathway providing services to men and women with complex psychological difficulties and serious offending histories.
The Inclusion and Involvement team (I&I) focus on two overlapping areas. The first is meeting the social inclusion needs of people returning to the community from custody. The second area I&I focus on is service user involvement. This is the commitment to practice in a way that keeps service user voices and experience central to decisions and practice in how the service operates.
