Offender populations comprise some of the most marginalised and socially excluded individuals in society. With this comes poor health, engagement in risk behaviours and reduced social outcomes. Violence, mental health, infectious diseases, and substance misuse are all characteristics of offender populations and have a huge impact on the wider community. The research programme linked to this application will collect new information aimed at reducing this impact and also develop a much needed intervention to reduce violent reoffending. Indigenous people are over-represented in the Australian prison system and will benefit from the work programme associated with this application.

犯罪者群体包括社会上一些最边缘化和最受社会排斥的个人。随之而来的是健康状况不佳、从事危险行为和降低社会后果。暴力、精神健康、传染病和滥用药物都是犯罪者群体的特征，对更广泛的社区有巨大的影响。与这一应用相关的研究方案将收集旨在减少这一影响的新信息，并制定迫切需要的干预措施，以减少暴力再犯罪。土著人民在澳大利亚监狱系统中的比例过高，并将受益于与这项申请有关的工作方案。
