Integrated offender management (IOM)
The IOM combines support and enforcement. It diverts people from crime.
We support and work with partners, including the Metropolitan Police Service and the National Probation Service. We target offenders they identify as likely to reoffend.
The IOM comprises specialist services that target the individual and supports them with:
- housing issues
- healthy relationships
- substance use and alcohol
- benefits and debt advice
- problem solving
- mental, physical and sexual health
- education, training and employment
- help to avoid offending in the future
The IOM offers support from multiple agencies. It also promises swift justice for those who continue to offend.
