A Review of Privatized Prison Chaplaincy Services
2021 REPORT | NCCM & IslamicFamily.ca
Federal prison chaplaincy services in Canada experienced a major shift in 2013 when the Conservative federal government announced that a single private company would be contracted to recruit and oversee chaplains serving in federal institutions. This was a departure from the previous model in which the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) provided a number of contracts to various faith communities who were then responsible for hiring, training and overseeing the work of their respective chaplains.There has been concern about how the outsourcing of federal prison chaplaincy services to a single company, Bridges of Canada, has potentially impacted the quality of spiritual care available to prisoners.
