Correctional Services Pioneer Project


Apart from providing safe custody and rehabilitation programmes, the Correctional Services Department (CSD) has endeavoured to collaborate with educational institutions and community service organisations in order to proactively promote community education. We aim at helping young people develop positive values towards life and become responsible and law-abiding citizens with a view to reducing crime.

  • In September 2008, CSD launched the Rehabilitation Pioneer Project (RPP), which was renamed the "Correctional Services Pioneer Project" (CSPP) in September 2025, targeting at youngsters. Through a series of activities such as Education Talks, Personal Encounter with Prisoners Scheme, Visits to Hong Kong Correctional Services Museum, Student Forum, Drama and Music Performance of “Creation and Rehabilitation”, The Reflective Path, Summer Tour, Correctional Services Pioneer Leaders, Mission in Prison, Rehabilitation Express, Captain Gor Union and Anti-drug 360, CSD seeks to disseminate to young people the messages of safeguarding our country and home, leading a law-abiding and drug-free life as well as supporting offender rehabilitation.

  • Rehabilitation Pioneer Leaders (RPLs) is a youth uniformed group established under CSD in July 2018, and was renamed the "Correctional Services Pioneer Leaders" (CSPLs) in September 2025, which will carry the impact of CSPP even further by recruiting and nurturing teenagers with great potential of leadership. Through diversified training, the group will broaden their horizons, develop their potential, foster their discipline, enhance their sense of belonging to country and home and social responsibility as well as encourage them to actively contribute to the society in the future by helping promote law-abiding and inclusive values for a better Hong Kong. In order to increase the society collaboration and recruit more CSPLs, school-based secondary schools have been set up since 2023 and regular trainings are provided to school-based CSPLs with aim to further promoting the CSPLs coverage. The total number of CSPL trainees was over 700.
