Élaboration d’un programme correctionnel intégré adapté aux Inuits

Development of Inuit-Specific Integrated Correctional Program
An advanced contract award notice (ACAN) is a public notice indicating to the supplier community that a department or agency intends to award a contract for goods, services or construction to a pre-identified supplier, thereby allowing other suppliers to signal their interest in bidding, by submitting a statement of capabilities. If no supplier submits a statement of capabilities that meet the requirements set out in the ACAN, on or before the closing date and time stated in the ACAN, the contracting officer may then proceed with the award to the pre-identified supplier.
1. Definition of requirement:
The Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) is mandated by the Corrections and Conditional Release Act (CCRA), to address offenders’ needs and assist in their successful reintegration through the provision of effective correctional programming. Additionally, CSC is required to provide correctional programs to respect gender, ethnicity, cultural and linguistic differences and to be responsive to the special needs of women, Aboriginal peoples, persons requiring mental health care and other groups.
As such, Aboriginal correctional programs represent a major contribution to the efforts of CSC to prepare Inuit offenders for successful reintegration in Canadian communities and to improve institutional management through inmate acquisition of self-management skills. The continuing implementation of Aboriginal correctional programs reflects a commitment to ensuring that Aboriginal offenders, including Inuit offenders, benefit from the most effective program content and program delivery strategies. To this end, the National Aboriginal Advisory Committee, the Aboriginal Initiatives Directorate and the Reintegration Programs Division are committed to the development of a holistic correctional program for Inuit offenders.
Objectives:
To develop an Inuit-Specific Integrated Correctional Program that is evidence-based and adheres to the risk-need-responsivity principles, while addressing the culture needs of the Inuit offender population.
1.2 Tasks:
The Contractor must develop an Inuit-Specific Integrated Correctional Program, which will include:

a program description;
correctional program referral criteria;
correctional program manuals for:
a readiness programPrimer/engagement program

a main programWould include an additional component for sex offenders

a maintenance programInstitutional and community maintenance; and,

supplementary program material (e.g. program interview booklets, report templates, etc.)

The correctional program manuals, the basis of the correctional program, will be used by Correctional Program Officers to deliver the program in institutional and community settings to Inuit offenders.  Additionally, work involved in the development of correctional program manuals will contribute to the development of training manuals. All final documents will be copyright of CSC (Government of Canada).
The development of the aforementioned components will follow and include the Inuit programming framework, elements, skills and knowledge identified by the Reintegration Programs Division, and Inuit Program Advisory Group (IPAG). In addition, it is anticipated, that this will be a multi-target program (i.e., targeting multiple offenders); however, there will also be a need for sexual offending specific elements to the program. If the contractor does not hold the expertise for these elements, the Reintegration Programs Division will provide the sexual offending programming expertise and work closely with the Contractor in order to refine and finalize these components.
1.3 Deliverables:
The Contractor must deliver on the above noted components, meet with the Reintegration Programs Team as required (bi-weekly anticipated maximum), and be available for other consultation or updating requirements (e.g., monthly) pertaining to the training manuals which we anticipate will be developed concurrently with the program manuals.
It is anticipated that the work of the Contractor will commence in August and be completed in February, with a period for revisions in March. During this period of time, based on coordination and discussions with the contractor, it is recommended that work be submitted as it is completed (e.g., Module 1 submitted for review (and contributions to training manuals) while Module 2 is being developed). This will permit the concurrent and efficient completion of key elements of the programming materials (i.e., training manuals being completed by CSC).
