Programs

Written By For Good Digital

The Corrections Victoria Reintegration Pathway (CVRP) provides some pre-release assessments and a number of pre-and-post release support programs. A list of available programs is available via the Corrections Victoria website: www.corrections.vic.gov.au/release/transitional-programs.

The limited availability of programs is significant because it can impact people’s eligibility for parole. To be eligible for parole, people must complete programs which the Court or Corrections has ordered, directed or believes that the person should engage with

There is often limited availability of pre-parole programs, and a general lack of gender responsive and culturally appropriate programs available in prisons, which can make it challenging for people to access parole.
