Correctional intervention services

Correctional intervention services output includes:
  • development, delivery and referral to interventions designed to address offending behaviour
  • counselling and psychological services
  • prison industries
  • education
  • reparation in response to conditions of non-custodial orders
  • research and evaluation services

Correctional intervention services increase the likelihood of offenders re-integrating successfully into the community and reduce the chance that they will re-offend.
