Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community
Traveller Employment and Labour Market Participation: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Orla O'Neill:
The St. Stephen's Green Trust is a privately funded grant-making social justice charity that works across the island of Ireland and is committed to social change. We also work in a number of other areas. We support the provision of culturally appropriate quality accommodation for Travellers and have an operational programme called Travellers in Prison, which is a partnership between Traveller groups, the Irish Prison Service, the Probation Service and mainstream prisoner support groups. We have a number of other programmes such as supporting people living in direct provision and asylum seekers in the North, programmes relating to the criminal justice system and a grassroots peace-building programme in the North.
