This presentation will provide an overview of the Community Reintegration Planning Tables (CRPT) Project, a partnership between the Ministry of the Solicitor General and the Provincial Human Services and Justice Coordinating Committee. CRPTs are intended to support a person-centered, collaborative, multidisciplinary and multi-sectoral approach to reintegration planning and support for high needs individuals being released from correctional institutions across Ontario. Using a phased approach, CRPTs are underway ten sites across province (Toronto South Detention Centre, Maplehurst Correctional Complex, Elgin-Middlesex Detention Centre, Thunder Bay Correctional Centre, Kenora Jail, Brockville Jail, Sarnia Jail, Vanier Centre for Women, Toronto East Detention Centre, Quinte Detention Centre). The presentation will provide an overview of the development, implementation, and operationalization of the sites, and highlight successes and best practices, key lessons learned and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
Presented at the 2023 HSJCC Virtual Conference on November 15, 2023.
