| Abstract: | The John Howard Society of Hamilton approached the McMaster Research Shop in December 2018 looking for research into an alternative halfway home model for Indigenous men recently released from custody. An Indigenous halfway house aligns with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Calls to Action which seek to return power and rights of the Indigenous community to utilize Indigenous practices of conviction, rehabilitation, and reintegration. This report highlights research supporting the need for, and important features of, an alternative halfway house for Indigenous men recently released from custody. |
