The MBMLW Advocacy service is shaped by trauma-informed practise which puts clients at the centre of all that we do. We offer specialist support across all 6 centres in Belfast Nevara, Armagh, Omagh, Derry/Londonderry, Ballymoney and Killough.
Our Advocacy service works alongside a team of dedicated Health and Well-Being caseworkers to provide holistic wrap-around services as well as working in partnership with Adopt NI who specialise in family tracing, DNA, intermediatory work and record retrieval.
Our Advocacy Services include:
-
Giving survivors a voice.
-
Providing advice and guidance throughout the redress process.
-
Assisting individuals to complete redress applications and gathering relevant documentation for application submission.
-
Access to records (Statutory Adoption Files, private institutional records, court files and ‘in care’ or social service files).
-
Provide accurate information so that survivors can make properly-informed decisions.
-
Work alongside local and regional community groups.
-
Liaison and attend consultation events with external stakeholders and the Executive Office.
