Join Clinks for the launch of our latest state of the sector report, which presents the best information we have about voluntary organisations working in criminal justice and shines a light on what support organisations need to enable them to thrive.
Clinks has been collecting information about how voluntary organisations working in criminal justice are faring for the last six years. Again this year, our research has highlighted the sector’s many successes, as well as uncovering some of the significant challenges organisations face.
We know that many people in contact with the criminal justice system are protected under the Equalities Act (2010) and have distinct needs. In recognition of this we included an additional thematic focus to our 2018 research exploring how organisations are recognising and responding to the particular needs and vulnerabilities of people protected under the Equalities Act (2010).
At the launch you will:
- Hear the main findings from this year’s research
- Learn how Clinks responded to the findings from our report last year
- Discuss how you can work to ensure the needs of people with protected characteristics can be identified and addressed.
We want to see voluntary organisations continue to make a huge impact on people’s lives, supporting them to achieve their ambitions as they move along their desistance journey. We look forward to you joining the conversation and informing Clinks’ future work.
