WELCOME TO THE LAGOS STATE MINISTRY OF JUSTICE
COMMUNITY SERVICE UNIT
Welcome to the official website of the Community Service Unit. We are committed to providing a structured, respectful, and purposeful environment for offenders fulfilling court-ordered community service obligations.
Our mission is to transform community service into a meaningful opportunity, enabling offenders to restore communities, build skills, and foster responsibility, discipline, and personal growth. Through supervised, community-based projects such as environmental clean-ups, public facility repairs, and social support initiatives, we aim to ensure that every community service assignment rehabilitates the offender and provides tangible benefits to the community.
We believe that every offender deserves the chance to make amends, contribute positively, and reintegrate into society with dignity. Our role is to guide that process professionally, fairly, and with lasting impact.
If you have any questions or wish to partner with us, please contact our support team through the details provided on this site.
