The province is working on three recommendations including a pilot program in Prince George
B.C. has released the full investigative report about the challenges of repeat offending and unprovoked, violent stranger attacks that some communities are facing.
More than 60 experts with practical or academic knowledge contributed to the report, including mayors, police, the BC Prosecution Service, health authorities, the Crown Police Liaison Committee working group and many others. The BC First Nations Justice Council provided a written submission to the investigation panel, which is fully endorsed by the investigators.
The program had success bringing together community partners such as police, mental-health and community support service providers to monitor and help offenders break the cycle of repeat offending and was shown to reduce repeat offending by as much as 40 per cent in the first year. Thirdly, it is supporting work by the BCFNJC to develop a pilot program based at the Prince George First Nations Justice Centre to better support Indigenous people who come into conflict with the law.“We welcome the province’s announcement as a step in the right direction” said BCFNJC Chair Doug White, in a press release.
