DF Circles of Support and Accountability for KSS

Tender description

Managing people convicted of sexual offences is a key priority for the Probation Service. Sexual offending causes significant harm to victims and it is essential that we are able to use the most appropriate and effective measures available to manage risk, and support individuals to reduce their likelihood of further sexual offending in the future. Circles of Support and Accountability (CoSA) offer a way of engaging communities in a positive way to rehabilitate and hold to account those convicted of serious sexual offences. This involves engaging trained and well supported Volunteers to offer social contact, guidance and accountability. Circles of Support and Accountability (CoSA) is a service which supports people convicted of sexual offences, improving their emotional well-being by strengthening relationships and community ties.
