The Initial Transitional Support (ITS) service: Impacts of a 12-week reintegration support service on reoffending and implications for best practice (PID004)

3.30pm – 4.15pm EDT, 28 March 2023 ‐ 45 mins

Parallel Workshops

This presentation outlines a series of evaluation studies that explored processes and outcomes associated with a reintegration support service administered by Corrective Services NSW in collaboration with community Non-Government Organisations, named the Initial Transitional Support (ITS) service. We report on an initial evaluation of impacts on recidivism, which was followed by multiple studies of ITS processes that provided context to the observed outcomes and insights about best practice in service planning and implementation.
