Prisoner Care Program

The Prisoner Care Program (PCP) is administered through the Aboriginal Legal Rights Movement (ALRM) and supports Aboriginal prisoners and offenders, pre and post release from prisons in South Australia.

The aim of the PCP is to work closely with Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander prisoners, to reduce re-offending behaviours that lead back to incarceration.

Aboriginal Case Workers are responsible for delivering pre, during, and post release prisoner care services. The Case Worker develops individual case management plans and a criminogenic needs assessment for clients.

Prisoners are referred from correctional facilities across metropolitan and regional South Australia from lawyers, advocates and Aboriginal Liaison Officers (ALOs), Social Workers and professional staff within the Department for Correctional Services (DCS), SA prisons and key agencies working with Aboriginal prisoners and offenders.
