What is Walk Bravely Forward?
Walk Bravely Forward is a society that is dedicated to assisting
offenders in the Federal Corrections System reintegrate back
to the community. We work with Aboriginal Offenders, (First Nations, Inuit, Metis, C-31, Status and Non-Stausthose individuals
who are of Métis, or Aboriginal descent, but we also
will work with all offenders who are ready and willing to
make the necessary changes in their lives. Currently we work
through out the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, and have
been doing this work for the last seven years.
Our namesake is a message to the offenders who are demonstrating
a readiness to take on their new responsibilities as free
members of society to
...Walk Bravely Forward.
It is also a message to the community that these individuals
have made mistakes in the past for which they have paid for
and they are now ready to
...Walk Bravely Forward.
Our goals are: Family
Reunification
Community Safety
Facilitating individuals to become more
productive citizens
Remember that an offender is someone's
