Adult and youth correctional statistics in Canada, 2017/2018 / by Jamil Malakieh. : CS85-002/39-10E-PDF

"This Juristat article provides an overview of adult and youth correctional services in Canada in 2017/2018. The use of correctional services is described using three measures: average counts, admissions and initial entries. Average counts provide a snapshot of the correctional population and represent the number of adults and youth in custody or under community supervision on any given day. Admissions are counted each time an individual begins or moves to a new type of custody or community supervision over the fiscal year: the same person can be included numerous times in the admissions count, as he/she move from one type of supervision to another. As such, the count of admissions provides an important indicator of the flow of persons through the correctional system for a given year. For youth specifically, initial entries represent the number of youth entering the correctional system for a period of supervision"--Page 3.
