Ministry of Justice awarded a contract to Royal College of Psychiatrists for the design, development, and delivery of an integrated standards-based audit and quality improvement process for all Democratic Therapeutic Communities (DTCs) in Her Majesty's Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS), including Therapeutic Communities Plus (TC+) for offenders with Learning Disabilities (LD).

The service was delivered over a series of two-year cycles, incorporating a full clinical audit within each cycle that measured each DTC's compliance with accredited operating models for reducing reoffending.

The review process also provided a measure of the quality of the intervention as a Democratic Therapeutic Community and its clinical integrity, and included an assessment of clinical performance and reporting to the Correctional Services Accreditation and Advice Panel (CSAAP) in line with accreditation requirements.

The contract value was £360,000.
