More often than not, family members are greatly impacted by the offending of loved ones and don’t know what to do. Family members can experience feelings such as fear, anxiety, helplessness, anger, insecurity for their safety and other emotions. Family members worry about what the future holds and desperately want to help break the cycle of offending.

Court Up provides support for family members in these circumstances. Court Up helps family members to work through their unique situations by:

*offering counselling, including  coping strategies;
*suggesting ways to help a loved who is offending;
*providing advocacy;
*providing information and resources;
*assisting with navigation of queries though the criminal justice system.
