Who are we?

Community Work and Partnerships is one of four service delivery streams within Community Correctional Services (CCS) of the Department of Justice and Community Safety.  We are responsible for the development of mutually beneficial partnerships with government agencies and non-government organisations so that participants can undertake unpaid work as part of their community-based sentence imposed by the Courts of Victoria. Community work serves as a valuable way for participants to pay back the community while also reconnecting and reintegrating into the community. We ensure participants make genuine efforts to undergo rehabilitation, and we keep low risk individuals out of prison and help them contribute to the community.
