Resettlement is a community based not for profit organisation
and registered charity
located in the London borough of Brent. The support services
offered are available to the London boroughs of Brent and

PLIAS
Resettlement was started in September 2004 and was officially
established in December 2005 to provide a number of services
primarily targeting ex-offenders and ex-prisoners to support
their re-reintegration back into society.
PLIAS Resettlement evolved from several years of debate about
crime, victims of crime, perpetrators and the life-long cycle of
re-offending. |

STRENGTHENING THE VOICE OF THE BME
SECTOR
"We are shocked by the
increasing numbers of Black and Minority Ethnic Offenders in the
Criminal Justice System and the consistent failure to address their
needs. We have therefore formed a strategic alliance with the
National Body of Black Prisoner Support Groups and are developing a
network of other infra-structure organisations such as BTEG (Black
Training and Enterprise Group) and Voice4Change. This network
includes front line delivery agencies as well, such as NACRO and
PLIAS Resettlement". Clinks. For more information, please
