Client: Adult ex-offenders in the community

The support needs of people when they leave custody are varied. Often the most important among these are accommodation and benefits. The weeks immediately following release are when the ex-offenderis at their most vulnerable. SOVA's volunteers can provides anextremely valuable lifeline at this time and after.

Once immediate needs are dealt with SOVA projects supported by volunteer mentors, can assist resettlement and reduce the risk of re-offending by addressing other issues and identifying long-term goals, such as:-

  • training and education
  • re-establishing family links
  • confidence
  • personal issues
  • employment
  • life skills
  • purposeful activities
