Purpose
The main objective of this project is to adapt, test and implement the Therapeutic Justice Program (TJP) in Pond Inlet, Nunavut. The TJP is an Inuit-led diversion program that aims to reduce recidivism and overrepresentation of indigenous offenders and victims in correctional facilities, increase front-line services to Nunavummiut for mental health issues, substance abuse, and trauma as well as enhance community-resource capacity by empowering local leaders and organizations. The TJP will offer activities to youth, 12 to 30 years of age, in the legal system under two main components: a clinical component that provides mental health support such as mediation, counselling, or healing circles and a cultural component that provides community-based cultural programming. An evaluation will be conducted to assess the overall effectiveness, impact, and sustainability of the Program in Pond Inlet.
