Abuse in Care - Royal Commission Inquiry

Abuse in Care - Royal Commission Inquiry

The Anglican Church worked directly with the Royal Commission and actively encouraged all its partners to fully cooperate with the process. Ultimately, we hope to contribute to a process of accountability, closure, and healing that embraces the core Gospel message that ‘the truth shall set you free.’

Humans of our Prisons

People who have offended are usually survivors themselves but we don’t often hear their stories.

Anglican Advocacy, in the Diocese of Christchurch, have collaborated with the Howard League Canterbury to gather stories from people who have been in prison, through the courts, through Probation, or have any other connection with the criminal justice system in New Zealand.
