- Identifying suitable clients (who are currently in prison) for IRTP/LTRP as early as possible

ACCOUNTABILITIES INCLUDE
- Support and coach FDS staff to run group programs for clients who have transitioned out of custody. Support the usual FDS referral processes.
- Provide advice to key prison staff on (a) how to identify and refer suitable clients to IRTP and LTRP in a timely manner, and (b) how to follow the necessary referral process to FDS via FDSAS. Plan, develop and establish sound transition processes for clients with an intellectual disability being released from prison to FRS (IRTP/LTRP/DIJAS) and SFDA.
- Initiate and maintain collaborative relationships amongst Corrections Victoria, FDS and other external stakeholders in the support of clients with an intellectual disability, when planning for their transition from prison to FRS/SFDA.
