Along with specializing in treatment for men, Seven South Street Treatment Centre also has a contract with Correctional Services Canada to help male offenders suffering from addictions.
As all clients will be included in the same program to deal with their disease and personal issues, CSC clients will also have the opportunity to deal with:
- Breaking free of any institutional behaviours and beliefs
- Breaking the cycle of any criminal mindset
- Guilt and shame associated with current/past offences
- Dealing with any stigma/ stereotype attached to being an offender
- Any fears associated with reintegrating into the community
Also, depending on personal situations, CSC clients may also continue to reside at Seven South Street after successful completion of the program. At this time clients may find employment or attend school while still having the support of individual counselling, the Aftercare program and a structured environment. This slower integration into the community assists clients to build on their opportunity of a successful recovery and also minimize the possibility of re-offending.
