Data for the Prairie Region include contacts with community support groups. Data for the Pacific Region include meetings at different support groups held at half way houses and parole offices (i.e., Belkin House, Manchester House, and Abbotsford Parole). For the Pacific Region, the data include community out-reach and community follow-up.  Datum for the Atlantic Region in 2006/07 represents frequency of “community relation” contacts.
