The Lifeline Program is an innovative service provided in partnership with CSC, the National Parole Board and non-governmental organisations. It is a correctional concept involving convicted, but paroled, men and women serving life sentences who have been successfully reintegrated into the community for at least five years. The mission of Lifeline is to provide, through the In-Reach component and community endeavours, an opportunity to motivate inmates and to marshal resources to achieve successful, supervised, gradual reintegration into the community. In-Reach workers are recruited to help other lifers throughout their sentences by returning to institutions to help develop programs for lifers; help motivate offenders; help offenders reintegrate; and contribute to public safety. 1, record 5, English, - Lifeline%20Program

Il s'agit d'un concept correctionnel qui fait participer des femmes et des hommes condamnés à perpétuité mais libérés sous condition, qui ont réussi à bien fonctionner dans la société depuis au moins cinq ans. La mission du programme Option-Vie consiste à motiver les détenues et à mobiliser des ressources en vue de la réinsertion sociale progressive sous surveillance en ayant recours aux services d'intervenant(e)s accompagnateur(trice)s et aux services communautaires. On recrute des intervenant(e)s accompagnateur(trice)s qui retournent dans l'établissement pour contribuer à l'élaboration des programmes pour les détenues condamnées à perpétuité, aider à motiver les détenues, les aider dans leur réinsertion sociale et contribuer ainsi à la sécurité du public. 1, record 5, French, - programme%20Option%2DVie

In recent years, several Correctional Service of Canada institutions have begun to offer treatment programs for low-risk sex offenders. These programs target sex offenders who need only minimal intervention before returning to the community and usually emphasize developing empathy for the victim and preventing recidivism. The Violence Interdite Sur Autrui(VISA) program emerged as an offshoot from these programs. It was developed specifically for men who have sexually abused children for whom they played a significant role(such as father, stepfather, grandfather, uncle or older brother). 1, record 6, English, - Violence%20Interdite%20Sur%20Autrui

Depuis quelques années, plusieurs établissements du Service correctionnel du Canada offrent des programmes de traitement à l'intention des délinquants sexuels à faible risque. Ces programmes visent les délinquants sexuels qui n'ont besoin que d'une intervention minimale avant de réintégrer la collectivité, et ils mettent ordinairement l'accent sur le développement de l'empathie à l'égard de la victime et la prévention de la récidive. Le programme Violence Interdite Sur Autrui (VISA) est quelque peu différent de ces programmes en ce sens qu'il a été conçu expressément à l'intention des hommes qui ont agressé sexuellement des enfants auprès desquels ils jouaient un rôle significatif (p. ex., père, beau-père, grand-père, oncle ou grand frère). 1, record 6, French, - Violence%20Interdite%20Sur%20Autrui
