CAAS Service Provision

CAAS is a short-term drop-in/drop-out service. CAAS Adults will be able to support a client, typically over 6-8 sessions working on 1 or 2 tasks.

Appointments are typically monthly (unless there is a time-sensitive deadline for a task).

Our current waiting list is 3-4months for one-to-one support.

Below are examples of what support CAAS can provide:

 Employment Related Support: 

• Access to Work Application 
• Preparation for interview 
• Signposting to other employment support organisations 

Executive Function Support: 

Executive function is the ability to plan, start, focus on, and complete a task in a timely manner. 

• Assisting in filling out official forms. 
• Assistance to read and understand letters. 
• Support with making phone calls to official organisations (e.g. GP) 
• Signposting to more specific services for some executive function support (e.g. Housing support, Legal Paperwork) 

 Benefits Support: 

• PIP support is not offered on a 1:1 basis. CAAS offers a PIP workshop for learning about, understanding the process, and filling in PIP forms. 
• Universal Credit Applications 
• Benefits calculation to estimate what you might be entitled to. 
• Signposting to other organisations for more complex benefits queries or support.
