CWC24172 Youth Violence and Exploitation Prevention Service

Description

This is a new service that will provide person-centred support for young people in Wolverhampton (up to the age of 25) who are at risk of violence and/or exploitation. It will provide specialist support to support young people to regain control of their lives and strengthen their safety, independence and autonomy, by providing independent support to them to address their needs and vulnerabilities and help them to create a positive future. The service will work in conjunction with statutory services across the City, families and wider specialist and voluntary/ community services to ensure that information is shared, and that young people have a coordinated and holistic support offer. This mitigates the current risk of our most vulnerable young people within the City being left without specialist support. The initial term will be for 1 year, with the option for to a further 1 year (subject to funding received) at the sole discretion of the council. The Contract is intending to commence on 1st April 2025. Tender documents can be accessed at https://www.wolverhamptontenders.com.
