About
Department of Justice awarded a contract to Gippsland and East Gippsland Aboriginal Cooperative Limited for the Koori Offender Support and Mentoring Program.
The program aims to reduce breach rates of community-based orders among Koori offenders by providing outreach services using trained Koori community Elders and Respected Persons as mentors, offering support, advice, and cultural connection to help offenders meet sentence conditions.
This initiative is part of the Aboriginal Justice Agreement Phase 2 and seeks to prevent negative criminal justice outcomes such as imprisonment resulting from order breaches.
This contract reflects a culturally tailored approach to justice, leveraging community-based mentoring to address overrepresentation of Indigenous Australians in the criminal justice system.
