Crime Reduction - Helping to Reduce Crime in Your Area

The Prolific and other Priority Offenders Strategy

Rehabilitate and Resettle

Purpose

The Rehabilitate and Resettle strand will ensure all PPOs are successfully rehabilitated through effective multi-agency work to address their criminogenic needs. It is important to recognise that the Catch & Convict and Rehabilitate & Resettle strands are not mutually exclusive. Work to address the criminogenic needs of PPOs should not cease because an individual is being targeted under Catch & Convict and should be maintained during custodial sentences. This will require closer working between all relevant agencies continued post-sentence support

Aim

The Rehabilitate and Resettle strand aims to present PPOs with a simple choice: reform or face a swift return to the courts. This will be undertaken through management of offenders - whether in the community or custody - and provision of support and priority access to services. This process will include multi-agency pre-release support for those serving custodial sentences and monitoring these individuals on release (using surveillance and other intelligence methods).
