Download or read book Implementing Evidence-Based Practices in Community Corrections and Addiction Treatment written by Faye S. Taxman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-11-20 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Community corrections programs are emerging as an effective alternative to incarceration for drug-involved offenders, to reduce recidivism and improve public health and public safety. Since evidence-based practice is gaining recognition as a success factor in both community systems and substance abuse treatment, a merger of the two seems logical and desirable. But integrating evidence-based addiction treatment into community corrections is no small feat—costs, personnel decisions, and effective, appropriate interventions are all critical considerations. Featuring the first model of implementation strategies linking these fields, Implementing Evidence-Based Practices in Community Corrections and Addiction Treatment sets out criteria for identifying practices and programs as evidence. The book’s detailed blueprint is based on extensive research into organizational factors (e.g., management buy-in) and external forces (e.g., funding, resources) with the most impact on the adoption of evidence-based practices, and implementation issues ranging from skill building to quality control. With this knowledge, organizations can set realistic, attainable goals and achieve treatment outcomes that reflect the evidence base. Included in the coverage: Determining evidence for “what works.” Organization change and technology transfer: theory and literature review. The current state of addiction treatment and community corrections. Unique challenges of evidence-based addiction treatment under community supervision. Assessing suitability of evidence-based practice in real-world settings. A conceptual model for implementing evidence-based treatment in community corrections. Implementing Evidence-Based Practices in Community Corrections and Addiction Treatment is a breakthrough volume for graduate- and postgraduate-level researchers in criminology, as well as policymakers and public health researchers.

Download or read book Basic Issues in Corrections Performance written by and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report outlines a comprehensive but flexible framework for assessing the performance of adult correctional programs in prisons, jails, probation, parole, and community-based facilities. The framework provided can be used with a variety of program activities, and acknowledges the fact that no single set of performance measures can be appropriate for all correctional programs. The first chapter gives definitions of terms and concepts, identifies how performance comparisons are used, and by who, and discusses the research underlying the framework. Chapter 2 places adult corrections within the context of the larger criminal justice system and discusses the goals and stages of organizational development that may affect the usefulness of particular performance measures. Chapter 3 identifies some of the issues and problems that must be addressed when establishing scope and focus for a measurement system, and developing performance measures. Chapter 4 and 5 consider more advanced issues – controlled experiments, interpretations of data, selection of benchmarks, etc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Corrections in the Community, Sixth Edition, examines the current state of community corrections and proposes an evidence-based approach to making programs more effective. As the U.S. prison system approaches meltdown, options like probation, parole, alternative sentencing, and both residential and non-residential programs in the community continue to grow in importance. This text provides a solid foundation and includes the most salient information available on the broad and dynamic subject of community corrections. Authors Latessa and Smith organize and evaluate the latest data on the assessment of offender risk/need/responsivity and successful methods that continue to improve community supervision and its effects on different types of clients, from the mentally ill to juveniles. This book provides students with a thorough understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of community corrections and prepares them to evaluate and strengthen these crucial programs. This sixth edition includes a new chapter on specialty drug and other problem-solving courts. Now found in every state, these specialty courts represent a new way to deal with some of the problems that face our citizens, be it substance abuse or reentry to the community from prison. Chapters contain key terms, boxed material, review questions, and recommended readings, and a glossary is provided to clarify important concepts.
