Description

Established in 1993, the Aboriginal Justice Initiatives unit provides corporate support and advice to Alberta Solicitor General and Public Security and Alberta Justice divisions concerning Aboriginal justice issues. The Aboriginal Justice Initiatives unit works with Aboriginal communities and organizations in developing justice initiatives that promote safe communities and respect for the law. It also coordinates Aboriginal justice initiatives for both departments. Examples of Solicitor General and Public Security Aboriginal initiatives include First Nation policing, victim services, crime prevention initiatives, correctional centre programs, youth justice committees, cultural training, and community corrections programs. Examples of Alberta Justice Aboriginal initiatives include First Nations’ court initiatives, community-based prosecution initiatives, cultural training, courtworker programs, human resource initiatives and legal services. The Aboriginal Justice Initiatives unit also welcomes the opportunity to work with and support the courts and members of the judiciary concerning Aboriginal justice issues.
