As a specialist Domestic Abuse Practitioner you’ll support adults and families within our accommodation services, who have been impacted by domestic abuse and require additional, intensive support due to the multiple disadvantages they face. You’ll provide a tailored, person-centred support package to help our customers achieve their goals and live a life free from abuse. Job requirements Process customer assessments to establish risk, need and requirements. You will then co-ordinate access to a wide range of statutory sector, voluntary sector, and other services appropriate to their needs. Support the customer to make sure they understand their rights and responsibilities within the accommodation when they move in. Work with customers to identify their individual support needs and provide a tailored, person centered support package including housing, health, wellbeing, finances, and safety. Work as part of a multi-agency response to meet the identified needs of customers. Develop and maintain an in-depth knowledge of the local services available for people with multiple needs, including their access criteria, and assist in the identification of gaps. Support the customer and advocate for them so they can move on from the service into settled accommodation or return home safely and are empowered with the skills, confidence and support required to live independently.
