Manitoba held a groundbreaking Nov. 10 for a new correctional facility in the Dauphin Business Park. The province says it is preparing to begin construction on the Dauphin Centre for Justice.
The facility is being designed to combine secure custody with rehabilitation programs, therapeutic support and culturally responsive services.
The province expects the centre to restore about 80 local jobs when fully operational. It says those jobs were lost when the previous Dauphin Correctional Centre closed in 2020.
