**About the Program**
Embedded Youth Outreach Program (EYOP) is s a Victoria Police led program, designed to support young people who come into contact with police.
This includes young people who are:
- in custody or have a history of offending,
- disengaged from school, peers and family,
- involved in high-risk behaviours,
- victims of crime.
Engagement with the EYOP starts at first police contact with at-risk youth. The EYOP aims to engage with these at-risk young people and their families to assess their needs, before further offences or serious crimes take place.
The program provides young people with support and referrals to services tailored to their individual needs. It also refers young victims of crime to support services and works with them to reduce the likelihood of future victimisation.
**About the role**
As a **_“front line leadership role”_** day to day duties will involve 3 main areas of practice, operational shifts, non-operational shifts and program leadership.
**Operational shifts** involve working from **3.00pm to 11.00pm** within the Caroline Springs police station itself.
When Victoria Police members attend calls to young people, the aim of the role is to attend alongside collaboratively and provide engagement. The idea is to help engage with a more youth focused approach, to help de-escalate situations and provide better engagement. This can allow for proper assessment, working out what the young people might need in terms of wider support and in cases where young people are new to police, intervening early to reduce the likelihood of future contact with the justice system.
**Non-Operational Shifts** involve working from **10.00am to 6.00pm** from the AV office in Sunshine and are the shifts where the aim is to undertake short term case management, assessments and work through referrals to appropriate services that might help the young people. This is also time to work through admin, team meetings and collaborate, debrief and provide supervision to your team of 3.
**Program leadership** involves supporting the 3 practitioners that report to this role. Providing supervision, training and onboarding of new staff, attending operational meetings with Victoria Police, as well as supporting with the overall operational oversight and practice of the program.
EYOP Practitioner and Police work side by side however Victoria Police member say,**_“... the EYOP Youth Practitioners way of thinking helps us, for example, different approaches can help with some kids the fact that they (the EYOP Youth practitioners) don’t have that ‘copperish’ approach, can help us engage more ”_**

- 2 operational shifts 3pm - 11pm no weekends, 4 non-operational shifts 10am - 6pm. 45.6 hours per fortnight in total.
