Nga mihi mahana ki a koutou ki tanei panui pai rawa atu o CorrVolunteer.  A warm welcome to another action-packed issue of CorrVolunteer. 

This issue again gives some superb examples of generous volunteers giving their time to others.

Additionally, we have an article reminding you about the new entry system for visiting a prison: your paperwork including a current induction and Ministry of Justice check will need to be updated and completed, as the four-week grace period will no-doubt fly by.

As always, the senior management team and I here at Corrections are wholly appreciative of the voluntary work you are doing in helping guide offenders to an offence-free lifestyle. Each interaction you have with offenders is an opportunity to impart practical skills that may assist with their rehabilitation and reintegration; be it reading together; drama/role play; knitting, sports/movement, music; any interaction whatsoever.

One of the goals Corrections has set is to reduce our current offending rates by 10 per cent over the next four years. Collectively, as one team, we can all help to make that difference.

Thank you again for your efforts, they are much appreciated. Nga mihi ano ki a koutou e mahi nei I te mahi, te mutunga ka mai o te rawe e hoa ma.
