Pathway Out - Project Adder:

The Pathway Out project is new and jointly funded by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) East Anglia and Norfolk Public Health England (PHE), with a view to maximising the training and employment opportunities available to participants on the Pathway Out project. The project will run over two financial years (April 2021 to March 2023) and is subject to an external evaluation, to be undertaken by the Home Office.

This service specification is for the Support Worker role of the Pathway Out project for qualifying adult male and female offenders, and those at risk of entering the Criminal Justice System (CJS) and will include all individuals with protected characteristics.

The provider will implement and deliver the Support Worker role working in partnership with the DWP East Anglia, to deliver community-based provision to ‘work ready’ consenting participants, agreed as suitable by a multi-agency case conference, referred by the DWP Work Coach assigned to the wider Adder (Addiction, Diversion, Disruption, Enforcement, Recovery) programme.
