How can agencies work together most effectively to protect the public from offending (and reoffending) of a highly serious or dangerous nature? Under what circumstances do multi-agency public protection arrangements (MAPPA) reduce public protection risks?
Background
We want to build confidence and trust in a system that upholds public protection and creates the conditions for individual rehabilitation. We want to better support the probation service in using evidence-based decision-making.
Next steps
We can be contacted at the following email address: [email protected].
