John Laing has two representatives on the NorthernPathways board, including the Chair of the Board. The facility has an innovative approach to the education, rehabilitation, and reintegration of offenders into the community, operating a results-focused model, with the aim of reducing recidivism rates.
The project was delivered on schedule by John Holland Group, and the John Laing team oversaw the on-time commencement of operations in July 2020. The centre features state-of-the-art technology to ensure safety and security.
Clarence is one of the first prisons designed and operated in accordance with the New South Wales State Government's Better Prisons programme. Better Prisons is designed to improve performance, reduce reoffending and increase efficiency.
A core goal is to deliver a correctional system focused on rehabilitation as a measurement of success. This includes industry and community partnerships providing vocational training to improve inmates' employment prospects and facilitate reintegration back into society.
