About this service
The Learning Resources Program (LRP) was initially operationalized in 1994 with the advent of the provincial Electronic Monitoring Program as a strategy to provide community-based multi-faceted group psychotherapy to offenders subject to a conditional sentence (house arrest) as well as those who were released from custody under the conditions of a Rehabilitative Temporary Absence. The focus is concentrated on the criminogenic needs of offenders with the goal of reducing recidivism. Criminogenic needs are attitudes and behaviours which contribute to criminal activity but which can be changed so that the risk of re-offending is reduced. Attitudes which favour a criminal life-style, association with offenders and abuse of alcohol or drugs are some of the the more important factors which are targeted in the programs offered at the Learning Resources Program.
