Affinity

The Affinity partnership's collaborative service model has been designed to deliver a successful DIP service in accordance with Welsh Government, the National Probation Directorate and the NWIS policy framework.

 

Arrest to sentence and beyond

Affinity provides a successful, end-to-end approach, from arrest referral to sentence and beyond – ensuring best practice and effective treatment interventions are used to maximise the engagement and retention of drug using offenders in treatment, particularly those recently released from prison, those testing positive on arrest and those identified for restriction on bail conditions. The Affinity DIP model offers a 14-week intensive framework of support to criminal justice clients prior to planned discharge or transfer to the core drug services.

 

Collaborative

The Affinity partnership is a collaborative service model between Kaleidoscope and CAIS.
