Choose a diverse minority group member and discuss their potential contact with the Criminal Justice System as it relates to their diversity. Describe their (potential or actual) custodial journey and the services that are in place within your organisation which can support the individual and their families.
Focus your discussion on:
The lens of the Social Determinates of Health
Current health and justice statistics specific to this minority (using current data and evidence).
Your organisation’s support services and how they support this cohort (please use a pseudonym to protect your organisation)
Services both within and outside your organisation which may be accessed to support this cohort, while in custody and upon release (This includes how you are able to facilitate access for the individual, considering equity and access of minority groups to established services)
Note:
A pseudonym must be used for the organisation and the individual receiving care
If you are not currently working in a custodial environment you can use a relevant custodial healthcare model currently used in your state or country of residence (there are Models in Week 7 you can explore)
Your assessment report is to be presented in formal academic writing style
