The Criminon programme operates in more than 2,100 penal institutions across some 38 nations. Staffed largely by volunteers, Criminon also trains the personnel of correctional institutions for delivery of on-site rehabilitation programmes. Criminon services further extend to police departments, juvenile facilities and crime prevention programmes—the full equation for a world without crime.
