The children of offenders can often be exposed to adverse childhood experiences and risk factors within their environment, placing children at risk for childhood maladjustment and future offending. A variety of parenting problems have also been reported for parents who are involved in the Criminal Justice System (CJS), such as poor supervision of children and high rates of involvement with Child Protective Services. Due to such concerns, parenting interventions have been evaluated within custodial facilities with a number of associated implementation challenges subsequently identified, particularly as a result of insufficient parent-child contact. Research has largely failed to examine the parenting support needs of CJS-involved parents who have contact with their children, namely, parents who are under the supervision of the CJS within the community (e.g., parents who are serving community-based corrections orders and/or parents who have exited custodial facilities). There are significant gaps in the knowledge base pertaining to the availability and access to parenting services for CJS-involved parents in the community, to what extent parents engage with community agencies around their parenting needs, key barriers that may interfere with parent engagement, and how to maximise parent engagement. This dissertation contributes to the limited knowledge of evidence-based parenting support for CJSinvolved parents in the community. This objective is achieved through three studies, with each study informed by the results of the preceding study (or studies): 1) a community agency survey to examine the types of parenting services that are available to CJS-involved parents in the community along with parent uptake; 2) focus groups with professional staff and parents to investigate parenting challenges and key barriers to parent engagement in community-based parenting services; and 3) a study that reports the feasibility of engaging CJS-involved parents in an evidence-based parenting intervention offered at community corrections. Study 1 was a survey of community agencies that deliver parenting services in Queensland, Australia (N = 82). The results provided information on the types of parenting services that are available to CJS-involved parents in the community. Findings suggest that one third of the available parenting services can be classified as evidence-based. The available parenting services are underutilised by CJS-involved parents, and the results suggest that there are barriers to services use, such as costs for some evidence-based parenting services and differences in service delivery for CJS-involved parents.
