A Work and Development Order is a program that allows individuals who are struggling to pay a fine to reduce their debt by participating in treatment programs like counselling.

Rather than pay the fine, you pay for counselling sessions and you can use these session hours as payment up to $1000 per month towards your fine.

Available to all current clients with existing overdue fines.
