Programme Name:
The ‘Steps to Change’: 8-week programme
Description:
Individuals are encouraged to look at their offending behaviour through discussion around the concept of change in relation to factors and links associated with their offending. Gain self-awareness around what citizenship means, what roles, rights and responsibilities are expected as a citizen and what they need to change to become a productive member of their community and not reoffend. This locally developed in-house is delivered by two JSWs. The ‘Steps to Change’ programme is aimed at promoting social awareness, encourage participation and ownership in setting of tasks and group activities. Build and enhance their skills and recognise the impact their offending behaviour has had on themselves and their victims.
