What is the role of a Volunteer Probation Officer?
Volunteer Probation Officers (VPOs) work alongside MSF’s Probation Officers to guide probationers in leading resilient and fulfilling lives. VPOs can help to:
Befriend and mentor probationers
Conduct time restriction checks on probationers
Link probationers up with community resources, skills and strengths-based activities, employment opportunities and more
Share their knowledge and areas of expertise to support probationers to better navigate their own challenges (e.g. facilitate motivational or career guidance talks)
Plan and oversee Community Service projects
Contribute to the development of interventions/programmes.
