Abstract
NACRO provides practical services to offenders, others at risk of offenders, and communities affected by crime; works with local organizations and communities to develop and implement effective approaches to addressing crime and dealing constructively with offenders; and contributing to national debates about crime and crime control policies. The directory lists the services, the NACRO unit responsible for these services, services available in specific areas, the local office or project to contact to find out about specific services, and the specific services in 11 geographical regions. NACRO services relate to crime prevention, juvenile delinquency, court-based services, prisons and resettlement, housing, employment and training, community service, education, mental health, race and criminal justice, training, information and publications, and the press office.
