Comic Book!

Have you seen our comic book, ‘“Dead Ball Specialist’”? It’s the first of its kind in Canada!
A dead ball in soccer is just like incarceration - something that pauses you for a minute until you get back on your feet. How will you cope?

This ethnocultural resource that we can all learn from would not have been possible without the Correctional Service of Canada.
Parole Book!
Families and friends frequently ask Canadian Families and Corrections Network through our toll-free line, our Visiting Resource Centres, or our Family Support Groups, about how they can help a person who is serving time in prison with the parole process. This booklet is a direct result of those questions. We hear you.
​
This document would not be possible without a generous grant from The Law Foundation of Ontario. Thank you!
