About this webinar

The justice sector has to make decisions every day that impact outcomes and the provision of vital public services. As we face ever-present challenges such as funding, changes in the criminal justice landscape, and demands on a stretched system, how can evidence-based practice underpin the delivery of excellent services?

Join our upcoming webinar to find out how evidence-based practices support the basis of the delivery of justice sector services and help you embed these practices in your decision making in the sector.
