Discrimination

A friend just pointed out something to me.

Sue has served her time, she is no longer on parole, so why are the CJP treating her like a criminal. If she did not have a disability then she would not be in this situation.

She in not a criminal, she has served her time, the CJP is for "This program is funded by the NSW Government for the provision of accommodation and support services for people with intellectual disability exiting the criminal justice system.

Clients exiting correctional centres undergo a comprehensive assessment to determine the level of support required by the person. Support may range from specific consultations or interventions to intensive accommodation support. Specialist assessment and support is provided by clinical and case work staff. A range of accommodation options is available, from intensive group home support to drop-in models.

The program aims to reduce the incidence and impact of offending behaviour by people with an intellectual disability."

She is not exiting jail she has been out for 7 years. So leave her alone and help the people who are leaving jail.
