...weekly basis. (Worrall, Pg. 499). This particular program is implemented in approximately 40 states and to date approximately 100,000 clients. This particular program is associated with small caseloads of 15 to 40 individuals who are kept under close supervision by probation officers. The intensive probation supervision program (IPS) has three main purposes: decarceration, control, and reintegration. This program basically depends on a great degree of client contact to complete the purpose of decarceration, control and reintegration. This program is also applied in many ways. IPS in some states is directly sentenced by a judge while others it is a sentencing after the alternative use to divert offender from the correctional system. Another method to use IPS is as a case management tool in order to give the local probation staff the flexibility on order to deal with clients. There are other domains that use the IPS system in three ways that may be in addition to applying it to the probation violators in order to being them back halfway into the community without winding up into a prison term. My second choice is electronic monitoring. Electronic monitoring defined...

...employment has on the individuals released from prison. The main independent variable of this research question is whether or not the released inmate will be employed or not upon release. The main dependent variable is whether or not the individual will return to their criminal behavior or not. The unit of analysis we will be studying is individual ex-offenders. Our goal will be to learn something about the population that we are studying and to gather information to identify certain common traits. Observations will be made using the longitudinal study method. Observations will be stretched over an extended period of time, and made twice a year for five years. The notion that having a job reduces the probability of recidivism is suitably confirmed throughout criminological literature. Employment offers the essential earnings for survival, increases self-esteem, advances the connection to a community, and progresses the impression of belonging to a group. Consequently, even if locating employment is strenuous for ex-offenders, a policy that aids these individuals in gaining employment will possibly lessen the likelihood of recidivism. Throughout the last decade researchers have formulated programs to ease the complicated shift confronted by ex-offenders during the phase of time between discharge and reintegration into society. These types of programs ultimately consist of two categories: post-release programs and in-prison programs. Post-release programs...

...amongst the inmates and officers which all too often results in physical aggression either towards or by the mentally ill inmate. Looking at JimmieJo’s current diagnosis of bipolar disorder, it is highly unlikely that he can receive the appropriate treatment required to maintain the violent outbursts associated with the disorder. Much like sending him to prison, jail would only increase the likelihood that he would become a threat to himself and others. With the jails inability to provide adequate treatment and medication, JimmieJo will be released after the maximum one year sentence to return to the streets and his old way of life which will ultimately land him back in jail and/or dead. As we have reviewed to two sentences currently on the table, it is clear that neither of them would adequately meet the needs of JimmieJo’s psychological issues. That being said, I believe it is...

...a community provider. The projects main goal is to provide a safe living environment for Latino gang members in the community once they discharge from prison. Agencies The major agency being targeted for this community project is the Connecticut Department of Correction. The CT DOC’s mission statement is as follows. “The Department of Correction shall protect the public, protect staff, and provide safe, secure, and humane supervision of offenders with opportunities that support restitution, rehabilitation and successful community reintegration.” The project is focused on the successful reintegration of offenders to the community. There was a recent report in the Hartford Courant that stated that 80% of adult males in the state of CT have been recidivists between 2005 and 2010. This number is staggering and every effort should be taken by both the department and community agencies to help this number to decrease. This project will focus on providing an opportunity for inmates in DOC who have been identified as having an affiliation with a primarily Latin gang such as the Latin Kings or Los Solidos. The inmates chosen for the program will have denounced their affiliation with the gang and completed the gang program in DOC prior to discharge. The DOC has various contracts throughout the state with providers for halfway houses, sober houses, and ¾ houses. This project will fall into the same concept focusing strictly on individuals who were gang members. In collaboration...

...“Prison Work Release” Maurice Stokes Wilmington University In the United States, more than 600,000 prisoners male and female are released every year from a correctional facility. However within three years of release, at least 50 percent of released prisoners are back behind bars serving more time for additional crimes or some type of probation violation. Prison “Work Release” has the potential to serve as a structured re-entry program into the mainstream job market. In a thriving or booming economy, improvement in the legal job market, opportunities should help reduce criminal activity. After evaluating several treatment programs to address the non-random selection of inmates who would qualify for “Work Release”, data has shown that inmates who participate in the program have better post-prison employment outcomes. While unconditional estimates suggest a large positive job market effect for three years following release, the various corrections for selection into the work release program leaves some doubt about the duration of a work release treatment. It should also be noted that a thriving job market does not necessarily translate into reduced recidivism. The reduction of recidivism is dependent on the type of crimes offenders committed. Better labor market opportunities reduce recidivism for those who are convicted of white-collar crimes, but have no impact on offenders who committed non white-collar crimes. In prison systems, work release programs allows selected...

You may say no big deal but for the many that don’t have the money the question becomes “what do you do, what do you do when the requested amount of money you don’t have and you can’t get it from any other means you have to go to jail. You have to spend time in the prison system or the county jail awaiting trial for a non-criminal offense. Of course some of us would love to take a train back to the beginning of the sentence when I said he was driving with a suspended license of course this wasn’t his first offense with such charge, then again it is a non-violent offense.

...Disposition Comparison of Juvenile and Criminal Justice Systems 8. Compare and contrast the juvenile and criminal justice systems. 3 4 PART ONE Juvenile Justice and Delinquency in the United States Origins of the Juvenile Justice System Before the establishment of the juvenile justice system, courts and judges treated juveniles as adults and, in many instances, juvenile offenders received the same punishment as adults. There was only one system of justice in the United States, and all offenders were processed through it without regard to age. Under common law doctrine, the legal system the American colonists brought from England, a juvenile age seven or older could receive the same punishment as an adult. Juveniles were housed in prisons with adults and sometimes received the death penalty; however, evidence shows that the most severe punishments were rarely given to juveniles.1 The establishment of separate institutions to confine juvenile offenders separately from adults occurred in the early 1800s. In 1899, the first juvenile court was founded in Cook County, Illinois....

...RESEARCH ON THE TRENDS IN DRUG ABUSE AND EFFECTIVE MEASURES FOR THE TREATMENT OF THE DRUG ABUSERS IN ASIAN COUNTRIES AN ANALYSIS OF INNOVATIVE MEASURES FOR THE TREATMENT OF DRUG ABUSERS PREFACE Crimes related to drug abuse and the illegal manufacturing and trafficking of drugs are serious problems for virtually every country. The abuse of drugs has an adverse impact, not only on the individual abuser, but also on the economy and society of a country as a whole. Drug use and the problems that accompany it have an extremely deleterious effect on the healthy development of young people, especially. Due to the rapid increase in drug related crime and drug abusers in Asian countries, the establishment of effective countermeasures for demand and supply reduction are a pressing issue. In light of the above-mentioned situation, the United Nations Asia and Far East Institute for the Prevention of Crime and the Treatment of Offenders (UNAFEI); and the Research Division of the Research and Training Institute, Ministry of Justice jointly conducted a comprehensive study on drug abuser treatment, from 2002 to 2004, entitled “Research on the Trends in Drug Abuse and Effective Measures for the Treatment of the Drug Abusers in Asian Countries - An Analysis of Innovative Measures for the Treatment of Drug Abusers”. The Asian countries included in the study are: China (Hong Kong), Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand. This is the first phase of the study on drug abuser treatment; the second...

...Acknowledgments ix Acknowledgments This book owes a great deal to the mental energy of several generations of scholars. As an undergraduate at the University of Cape Town, Francis Wilson made me aware of the importance of migrant labour and Robin Hallett inspired me, and a generation of students, to study the African past. At the School of Oriental and African Studies in London I was fortunate enough to have David Birmingham as a thesis supervisor. I hope that some of his knowledge and understanding of Lusophone Africa has found its way into this book. I owe an equal debt to Shula Marks who, over the years, has provided me with criticism and inspiration. In the United States I learnt a great deal from ]eanne Penvenne, Marcia Wright and, especially, Leroy Vail. In Switzerland I benefitted from the friendship and assistance of Laurent Monier of the IUED in Geneva, Francois Iecquier of the University of Lausanne and Mariette Ouwerhand of the dépurtement évangélrlyue (the former Swiss Mission). In South Africa, Patricia Davison of the South African Museum introduced me to material culture and made me aware of the richness of difference; the late Monica Wilson taught me the fundamentals of anthropology and Andrew Spiegel and Robert Thornton struggled to keep me abreast of changes in the discipline; Sue Newton-King and Nigel Penn brought shafts of light from the eighteenthcentury to bear on early industrialism. Charles van Onselen laid a major part of the intellectual foundations on...
