Book Synopsis Motivational Interviewing with Offenders by : Jill D. Stinson
Download or read book Motivational Interviewing with Offenders written by Jill D. Stinson and published by Guilford Publications. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From experts on working with court-mandated populations, this book shows how motivational interviewing (MI) can help offenders move beyond resistance or superficial compliance and achieve meaningful behavior change. Using this evidence-based approach promotes successful rehabilitation and reentry by drawing on clients' values, goals, and strengths--not simply telling them what to do. The authors clearly describe the core techniques of MI and bring them to life with examples and sample dialogues from a range of criminal justice and forensic settings. Of crucial importance, the book addresses MI implementation in real-world offender service systems, including practical strategies for overcoming obstacles. This book is in the Applications of Motivational Interviewing series, edited by Stephen Rollnick, William R. Miller, and Theresa B. Moyers.
Book Synopsis The Training and Employment of Offenders by : Marcia K. Freedman
Download or read book The Training and Employment of Offenders written by Marcia K. Freedman and published by . This book was released on 1967 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reports discusses alleviating the problems of ex-offenders in finding employment upon release through vocational training, work release, and public support. Prison industries are described along with recommendations for improving the management of such systems. Vocational training programs are analyzed, with a look at recent innovations and including attendance of classes outside the institution. Suggestions are provided for vocational training improvement. The practice of releasing a prisoner during the day to work in private employment -- work release -- is discussed, including the administration of such programs, costs, and other problems. Ideas for increasing the effectiveness of work release programs are given. After discussing the methods of training offenders the authors consider problems which arise from the nature of the job market, the effect of a criminal record, and public attitudes. Here again, specific recommendations are provided to aid in overcoming these barriers to ex-offender employment.
Book Synopsis Social Skills in Prison and the Community by : Philip Priestley
Download or read book Social Skills in Prison and the Community written by Philip Priestley and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-10-25 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Gate fever’ is the name of a non-medical syndrome said to infect men in prison as the date of their discharge draws near. Its symptoms are euphoria and anxiety, mixed with irrational thinking; and the unfailing cure of the condition is the cold douche of reality which awaits the victim outside the prison gate. The primary aim of this book, originally published in 1984, is to describe and promote social-skills-based methods for helping offenders cope better with the problems they face in the community: finding and keeping work and accommodation, managing money and leisure time, getting on with other people and, in some cases, controlling their drinking or violent behaviour. Based on an action-research project undertaken with nearly four hundred men in Ranby and Ashwell prisons and at the Sheffield day training centre, the book outlines the origins of the project, the design and development of course materials, and the training of prison officers and probation staff to administer them. It looks at the characteristics of the men who took part in the experiment and at their problems, and details the content and conduct of the courses in practice. The results of the work are also reported, often in the words of the men who made use of the methods. Overall offending rates were not reduced but violent offenders at Ranby were less likely to be re-convicted of violent offences after release. One of the outcomes of the project was a model for working with offenders which has spread to other prisons and probation areas. A final chapter discusses the difficulties of doing innovative work in penal establishments and makes suggestions for developing social skills work with prisoners and probationers.

Book Synopsis Preventing Violence by : James Gilligan
Download or read book Preventing Violence written by James Gilligan and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 2001-07-17 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this controversial and compassionate book, the distinguished psychiatrist James Gilligan proposes a radically new way of thinking about violence and how to prevent it. Violence is most often addressed in moral and legal terms: "How evil is this action, and how much punishment does it deserve?" Unfortunately, this way of thinking, the basis for our legal and political institutions, does nothing to shed light on the causes of violence. Violent criminals have been Gilligan's teachers, and he has been their student. Prisons are microcosms of the societies in which they exist, and by examining them in detail, we can learn about society as a whole. Gilligan suggests treating violence as a public health problem. He advocates initiating radical social and economic change to attack the root causes of violence, focusing on those at increased risk of becoming violent, and dealing with those who are already violent as if they were in quarantine rather than in constraint for their punishment and for society's revenge. The twentieth century was steeped in violence. If we attempt to understand the violence of individuals, we may come to prevent the collective violence that threatens our future far more than all the individual crimes put together.
