Rehabilitation

Our teams deliver a range of rehabilitation programmes for people on both community-based sentences and in prisons. We also help to connect offenders with external services that can assist with their rehabilitation and work with whānau.

Roles

Programme Facilitator

Programme facilitators plan and deliver therapeutic programmes that are aimed at helping offenders to understand and address the factors that led to their offending.

Probation Officer

Probation officers work with offenders, whānau and social service agencies to support the rehabilitation of people on community-based sentences, and ensure they meet the requirements of their sentence.

Case Manager

Case managers work with individuals in prison to understand their needs and connect them with rehabilitation programmes and supports.

Psychologist

Psychologists assess and provide treatment to those in prison or on community-based sentences. They may also help develop rehabilitation programmes, train programme facilitators, and conduct research.

Other roles

Many more roles across the organisation - from corrections officers to advisers - play a key part in rehabilitation, either through their interactions with people under our management, or through their work behind the scenes.
