Outreach & Transitional Service for young adults aged 16-25 years

Opportunity overview

The outreach service will deliver interventions to reduce harm around substance use and associated risky behaviours with a target audience of 16–25-year-olds. The aim of the outreach service is to reduce and / or prevent recreational/experimental use turning into problematic drug and alcohol use. The service will explore new opportunities to provide outreach within the city of Sheffield and will discuss this with commissioners in the new contract period. The service will be required to provide harm reduction advice and support, overdose prevention advice, and work closely with key partners including but not limited to, sexual health and mental health services. The service will provide a comprehensive referral and signposting function to ensure that substance use support is accessible to all individuals encountered during outreach and education initiatives. This includes a commitment to navigating both adult and youth-specific treatment systems, ensuring that referrals are handled with the necessary sensitivity and clinical relevance. By integrating these transition points into standard outreach procedures, the service will facilitate a seamless journey for service users from initial engagement through to specialist substance use intervention.
