CFO Evolution

Creating Future Opportunities (CFO) Evolution

A new approach to supporting those who need it most

What is CFO Evolution?

CFO Evolution is a comprehensive service for the diverse needs of people in prison and on probation to help reduce reoffending. 

The holistic approach integrates the previous CFO3 and CFO Activity Hub services into a single cohesive programme which is designed to:

• Increase engagement – connecting with people traditionally unable or unwilling to engage with existing or mainstream services.
• Sustain engagement – enhancing resilience, developing skills, and providing practical support.
• Fill gaps – identifying and addressing gaps in existing provisions.

What services are available?

CFO Evolution is delivered in prison, at community-based CFO Activity Hubs, or through outreach services across three regions.
