Canada Correctional Facilities – Vancouver, BC

Canada Correctional Facilities (Vancouver Parole Office)

The Canada Correctional Facilities location at 877 Expo Boulevard houses the Vancouver Urban Parole Office, a key operational unit of the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC). As a federal government institution, this office is distinct from provincial probation services; it specifically manages offenders serving federal sentences (two years or more) who have been released into the community.

Federal Parole Supervision

This office is responsible for the supervision of offenders on various forms of conditional release, including Day Parole, Full Parole, and Statutory Release. The Parole Officers stationed here play a critical role in public safety by monitoring offender behavior and ensuring compliance with the strict conditions set by the Parole Board of Canada.

• Monitoring & Intervention: Officers conduct regular meetings with offenders, home visits, and collateral checks with family and employers to assess risk and progress.
• Reintegration: The office facilitates the safe reintegration of offenders into the Vancouver community by connecting them with halfway houses, employment programs, and indigenous cultural support services.
• Warrant Execution: In cases of breach of conditions, this office has the authority to issue suspension warrants, returning the offender to custody.

Location and Security

Located near BC Place and the Stadium-Chinatown SkyTrain station, this facility operates with high-security standards. Access is strictly controlled. The office coordinates closely with the Vancouver Police Department and other community partners to manage high-risk offenders in the Metro Vancouver area.
