Community Corrections is the part of Corrective Services NSW that supervises offenders in the community while supporting them to complete their court orders. We promote offenders' safe and effective rehabilitation and re-integration through partnerships with other agencies and community groups.
Community Corrections staff work in more than 60 Community Corrections offices and facilities across NSW with the aim of making communities safer and enabling people to change their lives for the better.
