What the Correctional Service
of Canada Staff Are Saying
The book club brings together women in a positive environment who normally would not interact on a daily basis. This builds communication, pro social skills, and their views on the world are changed. It has been a great honour to have Lawrence Hill and Marina Nemat come speak with our groups, empowering the women, and enabling them to see outside of themselves and to have hope for their futures.”
Carroll Calder, Librarian, CSC, Grand Valley Institution for Women

“Prison can be a very dark and negative place to be for inmates, but by having an inmate book club, it provides a very stimulating and positive bright light for inmates.”
Bob Fasching, Librarian, CSC, Warkworth Institution
