Published purpose
This funding will support the Therapeutic Justice Program (TJP) to reduce recidivism, reduce overrepresentation of indigenous offenders in the justice system, increase front-line services to Nunavummiut for mental health issues, substance abuse and trauma, and enhance community-resource capacity by empowering local leaders and organizations. The TJP will offer an alternative to incarceration in the sentencing process by offering a clinical and cultural approach to address the underlying reasons for the criminal behaviour.
