John Howard Society of Peterborough

About Us

Through evidence-based programs, we foster resilience and safety in individuals, their relationships, and their communities. We help youth and adults develop the life skills necessary to make choices that are more respectful of themselves and those around them.  We support families with resources to better navigate the challenges of parenting. For those leaving incarceration, we provide reintegration supports that reduce their risk of re-offending.

Mission Statement

In partnership with the community to make Peterborough safer through prevention, education, reform, aftercare and treatment services for persons who are, or who have the potential to be involved in the Criminal Justice System.
