Whats our challenge?

• To target and engage with the hardest to reach
  offenders.
• Criminally active 10 of offenders have 3 plus
  convictions and are responsible for half of all
  crimes committed in the County.
• Well known to the Criminal Justice System
  present them with a choice to sign up to the ROSE
  Project.
• Many have significant issues relating to drug
  addiction, education and employment skills, lack
  of stable or suitable accommodation.

What do we do?

• Target our resources on offenders who are right
  for ROSE and have the best chance of succeeding.
• Simple choice reform of face swift return to
  court and custody.
• Provide structured and monitored interventions
  to address the risks they present and the
  criminogenic needs

Where do we all fit in?

• Costs of crime in social and emotional terms are
  too high one more victim is one too many
• Evidence based we need to target scarce
  resources on what works.
• Need to make our communities safer and be
  accountable to our communities as public
  servants.
• Need to promote and continue to invest in ROSE
  because believe and know that it works!

Two operational bases at Albion House,
Northampton Finedon Police House About 85
of the clients are from within the Criminal
Justice System and nearly all have a Class A drug
and/or alcohol addiction which fuels their
criminality Currently have 110 signed to the
project

How does it work?

• By making an informed assessment as to the needs
  of the individual and then ensuring that those
  issues which lead to offending are addressed.
  This could be by way of
• Access to the appropriate agencies and support
  networks
• Medical intervention
• Support in securing appropriate accommodation
• Support in life skills training and education
• Access to job training and employment
• Order to chaos

11
Why should the PPO comply?

• Joint supervision from both Probation Police
• Drug tested twice a week
• Failure to comply is breach of licence/community
  order
• Data Exchange Agreement signed by all agencies
  involved (both statutory and voluntary), means
  we share information
• Continued or resumed criminal activity or drugs
  misuse rapidly dealt with via recall or targeting
  by front line police
• Not all succeed, some return to prison not the
  right time for them to engage.
