The West Yorkshire Combined Authority is seeking to appoint a provider for the Mayors West Yorkshire Domestic Abuse Perpetrator service using CARA (Cautioning and Relationship Abuse) Programme covering all districts: Bradford; Calderdale; Kirklees; Leeds and Wakefield.
The Mayor is seeking to appoint a provider to lead the delivery and further development of the West Yorkshire Domestic Abuse Perpetrator service using CARA (Cautioning and Relationship Abuse) Programme over a maximum contract period of 7 years that has the ability to support up to 650 perpetrators per annum and associated victims where they are willing to engage that are intimate partners or family members.
The programme will focus on first time, standard level risk perpetrators of domestic abuse who receive a conditional caution.
