I quite often hear of people being given Rehabilitation Activity Days as part of their sentencing for various offences including IIOC. I am wondering, what do these rehabilitation days typically consist of? What is their purpose? Are they effective? I've not been able to find much information about them online.

I've never heard of this before and my ex went to prison for IIOC. X

From what I can understand from my son, Rehabilitation Activity Days are sessions where a particular activity is undertaken as agreed by a probation officer and their person to help the person in moving forward. For example, it might be a session developing a life map, or attending an external course. Some sentencing will say up to x amount of RAD days/hours so that the probation officer can put in as many or as few as they feel are needed.

I hope that helps.

My OH received 35 days of RAR as part of his sentence today. We'll probably find out more when he speaks to his probation officer next week x
