Employment support: blueprint for a data-led, holistic strategy Too many people miss out on employment support before they are truly ready to get into or return to work. The issue is rarely a lack of motivation. More often, it is the absence of comprehensive wraparound support that helps people build financial stability, an understanding of financial impact and the mental readiness to take the next step.

In this webinar, local authority teams and third-sector partners will learn how to track employment outcomes more effectively and keep residents engaged in support programmes, even when their needs are complex.

Through real-world case studies, we’ll explore practical, holistic early-intervention approaches and how accessible data and technology can help identify and engage the right individuals, followed by an interactive Q&A with the speakers.

Join us to get a practical blueprint for how to:
- Measure and track employment outcomes in a way that reflects continuous real-world progress, not only job starts
- Reduce drop-off from employment support programmes, by combining employment support with mental health, debt advice, benefits eligibility checks and income maximisation strategies
- Use proactive outreach and targeting to identify and reach residents before they hit crisis point
- Build and deploy multidisciplinary teams that support people across the full spectrum of their needs, keeping them engaged at every touchpoint, from bereavement support to CV writing

Stay aligned with CRF guidance on effective crisis support, financial resilience, and local support networks, including non-digital and cash-first approaches
Who should join: Local authorities, housing associations, debt and employment advisers and public sector commissioners working on financial resilience and employment programmes.

Join us on Tuesday 23 June at 10:30 am to see how data, technology and joined-up support can help more residents move into sustainable work, delivering stronger outcomes, easing pressure on local services, and building a more resilient community.
