NEPACS is a voluntary, independent community-based charity working in the North East of England.
Our purposes are:
• To assist offenders, ex-offenders and their families
• To contribute to the rehabilitation of offenders and the reduction of offending
• To collect and disseminate information about criminal justice issues and the reduction of crime.
PLEASE NOTE: NEPACS aims to contact you within 2 weeks. Please contact Volun-tees if you have not heard anything after this time.
We operate a range of projects in the regions prisons and young offender institutions (Northumberland, Deerbolt, Durham, Frankland, Holme House, Kirklevington and Low Newton).
We also provide support to children and young people who are in local authority care or affected by a parent's imprisonment.
