Mission Statement
Members of the Association believe that those who engage in criminal and offending behaviour not only impact on society by their actions, but behave as they do in part because they have been impacted upon.
Our clients’ rights to ethical and humane treatment are in no way diminished because they have diminished the rights of others.
We subscribe to the view that therapeutic treatment must go beyond punishment and restraint, and be aimed at healing, and at reducing offending behaviour, giving due regard both to the client’s worth and the need for public protection.
