SOROPTIMISTS TAKING ACTION – WOMEN IN PRISON

“Following the publication of the report ‘Transforming Lives’ with the Prison Reform Trust (PRT) in December 2014, Soroptimist clubs across the UK and the UK Programme Action Committee (UKPAC) have been involved in disseminating the findings, and encouraging responsible authorities to take action to address the recommendations within it. The intention is to inspire changes in the way women’s minor offending is addressed across the UK; focusing more on community-based solutions with an emphasis on diversion out of the criminal justice system, and on appropriate help for women in addressing the causes of offending.

As a part of this follow up there is a report as part of the Soroptimist International  blog.
