Corrective Services NSW (CSNSW) runs the state’s correctional centres, supervises offenders in the community, and delivers programs to reduce reoffending, support reintegration and build safer communities.
Part of the care CSNSW is responsible for is to ensure the 10,000 people in custody receive a nutritionally balanced meal three times a day, every day.

Our units inspire people in custody to feel proud of the work they do, supported to achieve qualifications in Hospitality, in addition to Baking, Commercial Cookery, Food Processing, High Volume Baking and Supply Chain Operations, with TAFE NSW and other training facilities. CSI programs are an excellent example of NSW Government agencies working together, in partnership with the private sector, to deliver real outcomes to benefit the community.
NSW Public Works managed the delivery of the temporary housing program following the unprecedented floods in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales in 2022. CSI Modular Buildings was a key partner in delivering 165 modular homes.
