Transforming Lives and Communities
The Citizen Security and Justice Programme (CSJP) takes a comprehensive approach to reducing crime and violence in our communities. It combines preventative strategies with institutional strengthening activities aimed at addressing some of the root causes of crime and criminal behaviour.

CSJP’s Job Corps is focused on growing youth employment and employability in The Bahamas by using training and an improved database system through the Department of Labour.
Strengthening Justice
