Description

Corrections is a unique part of the justice and public safety system that directly helps to keep Ontario's communities safe.

While the courts decide who is placed in our custody and under our supervision, we have an opportunity to positively influence the course of a person's life and help reduce the chance that they will return to the justice system after their current term of custody or supervision.

The Program Design and Implementation Branch offers the perfect opportunity for a results-driven individual with strong strategic program evaluation and design skills, and a passion for continuous improvement.
