Many people with a history of involvement in the criminal justice system find it difficult to access mainstream counselling services, so the service works on an outreach basis. The service can visit clients in correctional centres on a pre-release basis, in their own homes, at another service, or in the community. Clients can be referred prior to their release from custody, however, they have the flexibility to support any client who has been in prison previously and wants to access AOD support. Priority is given to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
