- [On Nelson Mandela Day, SLSC Calls for Revisions to Bill C-83 and Structured Intervention Units (SIUs)](https://stleonards.ca/nelson-mandela-day-2024-sius/) - July 18 is recognized as Nelson Mandela International Day. On this day, we recognize the struggles that Nelson Mandela went through in 27 years of imprisonment, and the advocacy he put forth for a more humane treatment for prisoners. The United Nations Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners, also known as the “Nelson Mandela Rules” were created in 2015 by the UN General Assembly.
