Book Prisoner Reentry in the 21st Century

Download or read book Prisoner Reentry in the 21st Century written by Keesha M. Middlemass and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-04 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking edited volume evaluates prisoner reentry using a critical approach to demonstrate how the many issues surrounding reentry do not merely intersect but are in fact reinforcing and interdependent. The number of former incarcerated persons with a felony conviction living in the United States has grown significantly in the last decade, reaching into the millions. When men and women are released from prison, their journey encompasses a range of challenges that are unique to each individual, including physical and mental illnesses, substance abuse, gender identity, complicated family dynamics, the denial of rights, and the inability to voice their experiences about returning home. Although scholars focus on the obstacles former prisoners encounter and how to reduce recidivism rates, the main challenge of prisoner reentry is how multiple interdependent issues overlap in complex ways. By examining prisoner reentry from various critical perspectives, this volume depicts how the carceral continuum, from incarceration to reentry, negatively impacts individuals, families, and communities; how the criminal justice system extends different forms of social control that break social networks; and how the shifting nature of prisoner reentry has created new and complicated obstacles to those affected by the criminal justice system. This volume explores these realities with respect to a range of social, community, political, and policy issues that former incarcerated persons must navigate to successfully reenter society. A springboard for future critical research and policy discussions, this book will be of interest to U.S. and international researchers and practitioners interested in the topic of prisoner reentry, as well as graduate and upper-level undergraduate students concerned with contemporary issues in corrections, community-based corrections, critical issues in criminal justice, criminal justice policies, and reentry.

Book Protestant missionary children s lives  c 1870 1950

Download or read book Protestant missionary children s lives c 1870 1950 written by Hugh Morrison and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2024-03-05 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protestant missionary children were uniquely ‘empire citizens’ through their experiences of living in empire and in religiously formed contexts. This book examines their lives through the related lenses of parental, institutional and child narratives. To do so it draws on histories of childhood and of emotions, using a range of sources including oral history. It argues that missionary children were doubly shaped by parents’ concerns and institutional policy responses. At the same time children saw their own lives as both ‘ordinary’ and ‘complicated’. Literary representations boosted adult narratives. Empire provided a complex space in which these children navigated their way between the expectations of two, if not three, different cultures. The focus is on a range of settings and on the early twentieth century. Therefore, the book offers a complex and comparative picture of missionary children’s lives.

Book excerpt: This book deals with the issue of how travel and tourism, if developed in a proper form, can contribute to human transformation, growth and development, and change human behaviour and our relationship with the world.

Book Post Incarceration Reentry Outcome

Download or read book Post Incarceration Reentry Outcome written by Madelena Sophia Rizzo and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eastern District of Pennsylvania's Supervision to Aid Reentry (STAR) court is a 52-week program for individuals returning from federal prison and on supervised release. Prior research (Taylor, 2017) compared STAR participants and comparison group individuals over an 18-month outcome period and found no significant differences in rearrest rate, but significant differences in supervision revocation rate: STAR participants were significantly less likely to have their supervision revoked. To further investigate the effects of reentry court participation on reentry outcomes, the current study extended the original study period by 18 months and used survival analyses to determine the effect of reentry court participation on time to rearrest. Results showed that the rearrest rate was not significantly different for reentry court participants and comparison group individuals in the longer outcome period, but revocation was significantly lower for reentry court participants. No differences in time to rearrest emerged, except when reentry court participants were divided into those who had graduated and those who had not graduated. Reentry graduates were significantly less likely to be rearrested than comparison group individuals and had longer times until rearrest. Policy and practice implications are discussed, and future research directions proposed.
