CDARS began 40 years ago as a psychosocial service supporting individuals experiencing substance and alcohol misuse issues, as well as their families and loved ones.
Our work extends across mental health, neurodiversity, and substance and alcohol misuse, providing compassionate, person-centred support to individuals, families, and communities.
This year Community Drug and Alcohol Recovery Services (CDARS) has become Community Discovery and Recovery Services. This change of name reflects the natural evolution of our organisation and the wider range of support we now provide.
We are looking for an experienced and motivated Group Facilitator / Criminal Justice Worker to join our drug and alcohol service.
The role combines the delivery of structured recovery groups and psychosocial interventions with one-to-one support for people affected by substance and alcohol misuse who are involved with the criminal justice system.
You will work with individuals to reduce substance-related harm, address offending behaviour, improve motivation for change and support sustainable recovery.
Significant experience of working with probation, prisons or other criminal justice services, and knowledge of Motivational Interviewing, CBT or trauma-informed practice, would be advantageous.
We welcome applications from people with relevant lived experience who also meet the role requirements.
