Genest Detention Centre's program targets criminogenic risk through its treatment philosophy. Developing therapeutic relationships with youth is the key component to encouraging positive pro-social change. Gender specific programming focuses on the needs of both male and female youth, as well as individual needs. This is done through structured programming including therapeutic groups, counselling and recreational activities. Medical services and school programs are also part of Genest's treatment program. Programming promotes the development of responsible attitudes, values and skills that will improve the youth's ability to succeed when they return to their families and/or community placements.
Genest Detention Centre also provides a secure transportation service within the Southwest Region.
