Overview

The Police and Crime Commissioner for West Midlands has awarded a contract for the New Chance service to Anawim, a community-based intervention program designed to divert women over 18 from the criminal justice system. The service addresses underlying issues including substance use, mental health, housing, domestic abuse, and socio-economic factors through trauma-informed, gender-responsive support, with referrals made primarily through West Midlands Police's Out of Court Resolutions scheme. The contract, valued at £1.35 million and awarded in June 2025, aims to reduce re-offending and improve women's outcomes in education, employment, and family relationships through collaborative partnership working with statutory and non-statutory agencies.
