The needs of women offenders under community supervision / Jennie Thompson ... [et al.].: PS83-3/338E-PDF
The current study surveyed institutional and community parole officers to ascertain the ways in which the community reintegration needs of federally sentenced women are currently being met, and where improvements could be made. Parole officers were selected because their direct contact with women offenders provides them with knowledge of the current reintegration needs of this group. Given the more exploratory nature of this study, no specific research questions were outlined; instead, the needs of women highlighted in the Revised National Community Strategy for Women Offenders were considered. The study focused on the following areas: women with children, release planning for women with complex needs, mental health services, employability and employment, residential accommodations, and partnerships with community organizations. Information regarding the needs of Aboriginal women and regional differences are discussed where differences were identified.
