Corrections

The Corrections Division helps keep Nunavummiut safe by enforcing orders and sentences given by the courts. Nunavut Corrections provides secure custody for individuals awaiting trial as well as for individuals serving sentences of less than two years.

Corrections manages clients with appropriate control, supervision and support. As well, it offers programs and services that help clients learn to become productive members of society.

The Corrections Division consists of adult and youth correctional services. We operate five adult correctional facilities, one youth facility, and sixteen community corrections offices to supervise probation and conditional sentences for adult and youth clients.
