Attending a programme should help you to stay out of trouble.
Taking part in a programme is about learning new approaches to coping with problems in your life so that you can deal with them in a legal and less harmful way. Programmes are based on research into what helps keep people from reoffending.
We expect group members to respect each other’s confidentiality. Information about your input on the group does go back to your Offender Manager. If you say something that causes alarm then that will need to be acted upon. If you recognise somebody on the group, let the facilitators and/or your Offender Manager know. You can then discuss if we need to do anything about it.
