Published purpose
The project aims to increase public safety by addressing the gap in services for older offenders transitioning back to the community. Older offenders transitioning to the community experience greater challenges around housing, access to medical/mental health care, income support, and system navigation in general. The Salvation Army will assist senior offenders by using an individualized case management approach combined with community support circles. Through practical engagements and information sharing with community partners, the project’s goal is to provide senior offenders a smoother, healthier transition from institutions to the community and reduce recidivism.
