HMP Altcourse has developed a specific strategy and model of family interventions that
We believe makes a clear positive impact on prisoners in our care, their children, family and significant others.
HMP Altcourse supporting families is an evidence-based approach that seeks to contribute to three key areas of ongoing concern and which in themselves represent our Terms of Reference for the strategy.
A. Reducing the likelihood of re-offending.
B. Reducing the transference of intergenerational offending behaviour.
C. Offering information, support and guidance to families, children, and significant others.
