The Salvation Army, Waterston Centre - Community Alternatives to Remand (CAR) Program

The Ministry of Justice has partnered with The Salvation Army Waterston Centre to provide a community alternative to accused who would otherwise be involved in short-term police or custody cells. The services provided by the CAR program will be focused on assisting the participant in:

1) reducing the chance of criminal re-offending

2) increasing compliance with any legal conditions while in the community, and

3) increasing the likelihood of the participant attending scheduled court appearances, while awaiting conclusion of the accuseds criminal charge(s).

The CAR program is a short-term case management service that provides approximately two three weeks of intensive intervention and support, followed by reduction of direct service once stabilization has occurred. There is then periodic follow-up towards the arrestees scheduled court appearance, and conclusion of their legal matters.
