Emerging Futures works with adults affected by drug and alcohol addiction, offering housing and community-based support.
We believe that no one should suffer the stigma associated with addiction, and that everyone seeking support should feel valued and respected.
We provide homes for people to connect with others and make the necessary changes to move towards independent, healthy living.
Our behaviour change services provide a confidential space to share experiences, and offer practical support to those who want to change.
As a Housing Support Worker, you will support people with a history of substance and/or alcohol issues (whether abstinent or working towards it), who are living in supported housing projects.
Within Kirklees, you would be expected to work within our 24-hour detox and rehabilitation service offering clients a structured stabilisation programme or community detox. You would also provide support to people who are working towards independence in our supported housing services across the borough.
You will assist with the daily running of the project and coordinate all aspects of the residents’ care, including referrals, move-in plans, assessments and case notes.
You will work closely with colleagues and partner agencies to provide a range of interventions to support recovery and help people achieve independent living in the community.
You will be required to work flexibly from different sites and be willing to work some evenings, weekends and provide sleep-in cover on a weekly rota basis.
