Circles of Support and Accountability
Circles of Support and Accountability (COSA) are groups of volunteers with professional supervision to support sex offenders as they reintegrate into society after their release from incarceration. Evaluations of COSA indicate that participation in a COSA can result in statistically significant reductions in repeat sexual offenses in 70% of cases, relative to what would be predicted by risk assessment or matched comparison subjects. COSA projects exist throughout Canada,〔(Bruce Cheadle, "Good news from Canada on Circles of Support and Accountability" ), ''The Canadian Press'', 29 October 2008, excerpt at RestorativeJustice.org, accessed 19 November 2011〕 the United Kingdom,〔Nellis, M. (2009) "Circles of support and accountability for sex offenders in England and Wales: Their origins and implementation between 1999-2005", ''British Journal of Community Justice, 7''(1). ISSN 1475-0279〕 and some regions of the United States.
==Description==
Circles of Support and Accountability are based on restorative justice principles. Each circle involves 4-6 trained volunteers from the community, forming the inner circle around an ex-offender (the "core member"). That circle receives support and training from professionals, who form the outer circle. The inner circle meets regularly to facilitate the core member's practical needs (i.e., access to medical services, social assistance, attainment of employment/affordable housing, etc.), to provide emotional support, to develop constructive and pro-social strategies to address everyday problems, and to challenge the behaviors and attitudes of the core member that may be associated with his offending cycle.〔("WHAT IS CIRCLES OF SUPPORT AND ACCOUNTABILITY?" ), COSA—Ottawa〕
