Fresh start for Aboriginal offenders

"The Minister for Correctional Services Tom Koutsantonis opened South Australia’s first prison unit specifically designed to accommodate Aboriginal offenders. The new unit is named Pakani Arangka, which means ‘fresh starting place’ or ‘growing out of’ in Pitjantjatjara. It gives Aboriginal prisoners the chance to reform their lives in a culturally-appropriate environment,” Mr Koutsantonis said."
