The John Howard Society, Saint John Branch has been actively involved in the area of justice/ corrections in the Saint John area since 1952. It has offered and sponsored programs dealing with crime prevention, education, employment services, literacy training, and referrals to drug alcohol treatment programs and mental health referrals among other functions to both adults and young people.
A primary focus is the provision of community based services to offenders and their families, young offenders, victims, and community development. Due to a newly developed focus on more pro-active, preventative measures for the reduction of crime and victimization, the Society is able to provide community members and organizations with effective community based programs and services for troubled youth and their families ensuring a safer and healthier community.
