About 60 active volunteers in the London program make routine visits to parolees, help them find housing and jobs and aid in keeping the offenders on the right side of the law, project developer and co-ordinator Neil Spence said in an interview this week. They also interview offenders after sentencing to determine what programs would help rehabilitate the prisoner while in jail. Ingstrup said the volunteer movement in the Canadian criminal justice system is in its infancy. The London program is looking for new volunteer parole officers. To qualify, people must be over 25, have good communication and interviewing skills, and be able to pass a security clearance.
Most successful applicants have a university degree.
