John Howard Society

The John Howard Society actively promotes policy and legislation that creates and maintains just, peaceful and safe communities. The Society recommends policies, which recognize the limitations of the criminal justice system to prevent crime and victimization and attempts to identify and promote the benefits of alternative prevention initiatives. The Society is active in advocacy, research, community education, coalition building and resource development and is a major partner with government departments in the development and implementation of services which fall within the provincial anti-poverty, mental health, anti-violence and criminal justice strategies.

As a lead anti-poverty organization the JHS assists individuals in overcoming disadvantage and inequalities which impact quality of life, ability to contribute, and so much more.
