Summary

Indigenous peoples continue to be vastly overrepresented in criminal justice systems in Canada and internationally. It has been argued that replacing standard correctional treatment with culturally-relevant programming may be an effective step towards reducing this issue. Tailoring services to individuals’ unique needs and cultural backgrounds, as opposed to a one-size-fits-all approach, may provide more effective rehabilitative services to diverse offender groups. Although culturally-relevant programs have emerged, little is known about their effectiveness in reducing recidivism in comparison to conventional programming.
