- You are part of the Inforsa social work professional group. You and your colleagues from other clinical locations will think together about developments within the field and their application.

- Social context and diagnostics: analyzing the client's living and working situation and conducting conversations with family and network members to obtain a complete picture of the social situation;
- Contributing to the treatment plan: providing a written contribution regarding the client's network and finances in the treatment plan and, where necessary, aligning with discussions; supporting finances;

They have been imposed a Tbs measure (involuntary psychiatric treatment) or another judicial measure by a judge. The treatment is aimed at reducing the risk of recidivism, so that work can be done together with the client on a (supervised) return to society.
What will you do?
We need your talent to support our special LIZ clients in getting their material and non-material affairs in order. In doing so, you will focus on the clients' social networks, supporting them with finances, and implementing interventions during difficulties in these areas.
