What if the very system designed to rehabilitate and reintegrate people with convictions back into society was riddled with systemic failures? Step into the world of probation services with Tania Bassett, Press and Communications Liaison at NAPO. where she and our host Alex Bastion dissect the growing workload, dwindling funding, and the harsh realities compelling many probation officers to abandon ship. We examine the significant impact of political decisions, shedding light on how this vital resource has been depleted over the years. It's time to understand the role of businesses, schools, and other institutions in providing employment opportunities for prisoners and people with convictions.
Dare to venture into the monitoring and oversight functions of MAPPA 3 - people under supervision, managed under the highest level of risk. Hear from Tania about the essential need for coordinated multiple-agency approaches and consistent supervision in preventing reoffending.
From staff shortages and high sickness rates to a lack of institutional memory within the Ministry of Justice, the challenges are real.
Tania's unparalleled insight helps us to unravel the ill-advised cost-efficiency of the National Probation Service and successive governments' missed opportunities.
This episode of the Rebel Justice podcast demands action for meaningful, lasting change.
