Abstract

Project summary: This project was conducted to provide an independent external assessment of the Lotus Glen Correctional Centre Indigenous Peer Education Program (known as Peer Support). Lotus Glen Correctional Centre is a 500 bed men’s prison located south of Mareeba in north Queensland, with at least half of all inmates being Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander. The purpose of the evaluation project was to suggest how the Peer Support program could be transferred to other correctional centres in Queensland, based on comprehensive assessment of aims, objectives, outcomes and processes used.
