Key findings this quarter
One request is being published this quarter: Key4Life.
Key4Life
Key4Life’s prison programme works to break the cycle of youth offending by focusing on emotional resilience, employability skills and providing on-going support after release from prison.
The results show that people who participated in the programme were significantly less likely to reoffend in the year following their release from prison than a matched sample, and the number of reoffences they committed in that period was also significantly lower.
