Tamarack Trades Training Centre
The Tamarack Trades Training Centre provides top notch training and skills development in the trades for at-risk youth in the Ottawa area.
William E. Hay Centre
The Hay Centre is a 24-bed residence for male youth (aged 12 to 17) in pre-trial detention or post-trial secure custody. It provides educational options and life skills training to help youth in conflict with the law make a positive transition back into the community.
Sherwood Youth Centre
Sherwood is an seven-bed residence for male youth (aged 12 to 17) in pre‑trial detention or post-trial open custody. Like the Hay, it provides education and training to help youth in conflict with the law make a positive transition back into the community.
One-on-One Anger Management Program
This program addresses the links between anger and action, which can lead to conflict with the law. Four one-on-one interactive sessions show youth in the justice system how to recognize anger and manage it with a variety of alternative patterns and problem-solving techniques.
Youth Mental Health Court Worker
This program supports youth who are in conflict with the law but who also suffer from serious mental health problems. The court worker redirects these youth away from the justice system and towards the services and programs they and their families need.
Community Reintegration Program
Offered to youth in custody, this voluntary program combines personal counselling and a wide range of ongoing support services. By equipping at-risk youth to build healthier relationships and focus on the future, reintegration counsellors help them reduce their risk of reoffending.
