Leeds seminar: What about the Women?
Events - PublicStarting 05 Jul 2017 - 17:00 through to 05 Jul 2017 - 19:00
featuring
Sonia Crozier
Executive Director for Probation and Women
HM Prison and Probation Service
Women currently make up around 5% of the prison population in England and Wales, with their numbers under 4000 since 2013. With the majority of offenders being male, there is a risk that the needs of women in prison and in the community are not being sufficiently addressed in order to promote their effective rehabilitation.
In this free seminar Sonia, who has responsibility for women offenders in prisons and probation, will set out what we know about women in the criminal justice system. She will also share her views on how prisons and probation are working together to address the needs of this often vulnerable and sometimes challenging group of offenders, to more effectively promote their rehabilitation, whilst keeping their communities safe.
