About Us

Corrections Victoria is committed to the delivery of responsive and culturally appropriate services that meet the objectives of the department's Aboriginal Justice Agreements.

Corrections and Justice Services understands that to reduce the overrepresentation of Aboriginal people in the justice system and to achieve a reduction in the rate of reoffending, unique strategies and initiatives must be implemented.

  • the ability to communicate sensitively and effectively with members of the Victorian Aboriginal Community
  • the ability to effectively engage with local support services and the Koori Court in the case management of individuals
  • an understanding of the Victorian Aboriginal Community, both socially and culturally, and the issues impacting on it
