OUR THEMES AND PRIORITIES – AT A GLANCE

OUR THEMES AND PRIORITIES – AT A GLANCE
BY MARGARET SMITH, Policy, Planning & Development Officer

The priority themes for the Community Justice Glasgow Partnership were agreed through a series of consultation events and workshops with a wide range of partners and stakeholder.  The themes are put in context of a strong evidence base for each and are set out in our Partnership’s Community Justice Outcome Improvement Plan 2018 – 2023.

PRIORITIES

  1. Service User Voice We will ensure that individuals who access services are at the heart of service planning and delivery.

  2. Prevention We will continue with the development of earlier intervention and prevention within the justice system, capitalising on opportunities at the first points of contact with Community Justice partners.

  3. Building Protective Factors We will improve factors evidenced to influence reoffending, including employability, education, health and well-being and housing.

  4. Throughcare We will improve planning for people leaving custody, to support the return to the community from prison.

  5. Service and Resource Alignment We will use resources where they are most effective, and in a collaborative approach to improve outcomes.

  6. Families We will ensure all new developments reflect the impact on families, and build on the resilience opportunities of a supportive family setting.

  7. Victims We will listen to and act on victims’ voices and ensure that victims of crime receive the support they need.

  8. Women We will continue to address the recommendations of the Commission on Women Offenders. 

  9. Communication We will establish an effective approach to communication, with a focus on continuing communication between partners, the wider group of stakeholders and communities. Improved communication will stimulate dialogue, enhance knowledge and further develop confidence in justice systems for the public and for key stakeholders, such as the judiciary.

The evidence base for each of these priorities is outlined in our Community Justice Outcome Improvement Plan 2018 – 2023.
