About the program
Our Intensive Case Management (ICM) program engages men who have used domestic violence in past or current relationships, and those at risk of incarceration due to re-offending.
The program works closely with NSW Police, NSW Corrections and with men being released from incarceration, to provide intensive case management to reduce the risk of re-incarceration.
The program works with men in a respectful, targeted way with the focus on:
- case management focusing on prevention and earlier intervention
- safety and support to impacted women and children to reduce risk
- reducing ADVO breaches and immediate reoffending
- supporting the man’s behaviour change engagement
The program provides men with longer term intensive case management for up to 12 months and access points to support services, with the goal of staying out of the criminal justice system, and to reduce risks to women and children.
Locations
The Men’s Intensive Case Management program is delivered in Kempsey and the Nambucca Valley, on the Mid North Coast, NSW.
Intensive Case Management
While each case management plan is developed individually, it may include:
- support with getting legal representation for family law, and safe access to children
- referrals to therapeutic supports, counselling or medical intervention
- safety planning for women and their families, with support for ADVO conditions
- support during the 16-week Men’s Behaviour Change program (Engage2Change)
- referrals for support with drug and alcohol issues
- help finding alternative accommodation to reduce homelessness
- advocacy and support with external agencies, NSW Police and other service providers
- case coordination support such as case meetings and other appointments
- referral of women and children to the Engage2Change Women and Children’s Advocate, whether they are a current partner or former partner
