Pobl
Offender Diversion Scheme
01646 698820
The Dyfed-Powys Diversion Scheme aims to deal with criminal behavior much sooner during an individual's offending journey by tackling the root causes of crime and related health and community issues. Its aim is to reduce the number of victims of crime by offering a four-month program of interventions to eligible offenders rather than prosecuting them.
To read more about the Commissioner's work with People, which aims to divert low-level criminals away from the Criminal Justice System and reduce re-offending in the police area, read pages 11-12 of the Police and Crime Commissioners Association article here: "PCCs Making a Difference Alcohol and Drugs in Focus".
