Prisoners Aid (ACT) has been operating as a community organisation in Canberra since 1963. Over the years we have assisted thousands of clients - including detainees, released detainees, families of detainees, and those involved in the court system (some of whom end up in prison).
Our key principles are based on natural justice for detainees and on rehabilitation in order to reduce the risk of further offending. Our twin objectives are to:
· ensure a ‘fair go’ for all those involved directly and indirectly in the prison system, including the families of detainees: and
· enhance prospects for the rehabilitation of detainees and their reintegration into society.
We remain the only community organisation in the ACT devoted solely to support for detainees, released detainees and their families.
