State of the sector recommendations paper
In 2017 we surveyed the voluntary sector working in criminal justice for our state of the sector research. We have now launched our state of the sector recommendations paper, which sets out actions we think should be taken in response to the challenges you told us about. As part of this Clinks commits to support our members by:
- Supporting organisations to explore alternative fundraising options: Voluntary organisations are diverse and rely on multiple sources for their income, but few receive donations from the public.
- Assisting organisations to support their staff and volunteers: We will share learning and information from existing programmes to assist our members with providing adequate training and support for their staff and volunteers.
- Proactively acting as a critical friend to decision makers: We will continue to proactively speak up on behalf of voluntary organisations and act as a critical friend to decision makers to highlight where the development and implementation of policy is likely to be prohibitive to someone’s rehabilitation.
The report also makes key asks of government and criminal justice agencies, charitable trusts and foundations, and the voluntary sector and we will monitor and report back on the progress made against these. We will continue to monitor the health of voluntary organisations working in criminal justice, and will be launching our next state of the sector survey soon.
