Community Safety
The Ministry of Community Safety is responsible for:
- providing supervision and rehabilitation services for young and adult offenders;
- promoting appropriate and effective policing; and
- supporting community and public safety services in Saskatchewan.
The Custody Services division manages the safe operation of provincial correctional facilities and their offender populations, assessing the risk factors of offenders, providing health care services and delivering programs that support the successful rehabilitation and reintegration of offenders back into their communities.
The Supervision and Rehabilitation Services division supervises offenders living under court orders within the community. The division supports the case management, rehabilitative programming and health care services for all offenders under its care.
The Policing and Community Safety Services division helps keep communities safe by delivering and supporting effective law enforcement and private security services. The division fosters strong relationships with police services, First Nations and Indigenous Policing partners, and community, federal and government stakeholders. It also oversees the provincial policing contract with the RCMP and administers the Municipal Police Grants program to support municipal police services across Saskatchewan.
