Book excerpt: "Federal Prisoner's Legal Guide" provides guidance for those who are either facing Federal criminal prosecution or who have been convicted and are serving a sentence. This must-read book offers practical advice as well as an overview of the most important legal issues. This guide fills a need.

Any criminal defendant or prisoner will find crucial information here, and no other book on the market provides this need-to-know information in such comprehensive and scholarly detail. Throughout this book, the author covers pretrial issues such as plea agreements, discovery, trial preparation, sentencing guidelines and issues, and methods of reducing incarceration time through the residential drug abuse program, the First Step Act, and other provisions. The latter part of the book focuses on prisoner's civil rights and how a prisoner can prevent abuses by the Bureau of Prisons, as well as legal guidelines for appeals and other post-conviction remedies such as habeas corpus. Finally, the author provides information on successfully completing supervised release and tips for ending supervised release early. The author is a trained lawyer who used 31 months in Federal prison to help other inmates with their legal needs and to prepare and file the brief in his own appeal.
Download or read book From Here to the Streets written by Joseph L. Chiappetta Jr. and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The corrections employee who inspired me to design this book knew what most of you reading this already know that the only hope that more than 90 percent of incarcerated inmates nationwide have for not returning to prison is steady employment. There are numerous books on this subject already, and most of them say the same things. It's also fair to say that most are accurate. This course doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, so to speak, but instead gives a step-by-step guide for preparing and facilitating a prerelease employability class in a corrections environment. Prison inmates are, for the most part, challenged with a wide variety of social dysfunctions. Educational backgrounds vary as well. It is critical to make the prerelease employability class both user-friendly and student specific for the challenges presented by the prison itself. Ultimately, it's up to an individual whether or not he or she chooses to succeed or improve the quality of their life. The key is to make this goal in life attainable and realistic to the students, thus encouraging them to make that choice. Remember that even the best plans in the world are nothing without good people to carry them out. If you're planning to teach or assist in a corrections prerelease employability course, you must understand and believe in its benefits. Not only believe, but also participate by sharing your own personal experiences and opinions to the extent that policy allows. Only by interacting with the class on a more personal level will you get the respect and trust of your students. By operating in this capacity, you become as important an asset to the course as the written material itself. The results of your efforts will be reflected in the future success stories from your students.
Download or read book Your Money Your Goals written by Consumer Financial Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2015-03-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's Your Money, Your Goals: A financial empowerment toolkit for social services programs! If you're reading this, you are probably a case manager, or you work with case managers. Finances affect nearly every aspect of life in the United States. But many people feel overwhelmed by their financial situations, and they don't know where to go for help. As a case manager, you're in a unique position to provide that help. Clients already know you and trust you, and in many cases, they're already sharing financial and other personal information with you. The financial stresses your clients face may interfere with their progress toward other goals, and providing financial empowerment information and tools is a natural extension of what you are already doing. What is "financial empowerment" and how is it different from financial education or financial literacy? Financial education is a strategy that provides people with financial knowledge, skills, and resources so they can get, manage, and use their money to achieve their goals. Financial education is about building an individual's knowledge, skills, and capacity to use resources and tools, including financial products and services. Financial education leads to financial literacy. Financial empowerment includes financial education and financial literacy, but it is focused both on building the ability of individuals to manage money and use financial services and on providing access to products that work for them. Financially empowered individuals are informed and skilled; they know where to get help with their financial challenges. This sense of empowerment can build confidence that they can effectively use their financial knowledge, skills, and resources to reach their goals. We designed this toolkit to help you help your clients become financially empowered consumers. This financial empowerment toolkit is different from a financial education curriculum. With a curriculum, you are generally expected to work through most or all of the material in the order presented to achieve a specific set of objectives. This toolkit is a collection of important financial empowerment information and tools you can access as needed based on the client's goals. In other words, the aim is not to cover all of the information and tools in the toolkit - it is to identify and use the information and tools that are best suited to help your clients reach their goals.

Download or read book Success in Prison written by Bruce Micheals and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-02 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Okay, so you are in prison. So am I. Have you played enough cards, drank enough juice, and done enough push-ups yet? I have. I actually got bored with that stuff about 20 years ago. However, when I stopped doing the normal prison routine, my life became more boring than I can describe. I was tempted to go back to wasting my time just to avoid the boredom, but I didn't. I believed, as you should, that we can dramatically turn our lives around. I worked diligently to figure out why I was attracted to the criminal lifestyle, how to motivate myself to get out of it, how to develop the skills I needed to function as a responsible person, how to get a college education, how to pursue a writing career, and how to be a contributing member of my community. By the time I figured it all out, more than 20 years had passed, and I had become committed to expanding education and rehabilitation in prison.So here we are, you have my book in your hands, and I have more obligations, deadlines, and responsibilities than I have ever had. I'm no longer bored, but I am concerned about you. Life is fragile, we are fragile, and prison is harsh. We need each other, and I hope, by the time you finish this book, you will agree that success is more about how we relate to one another than about how we relate to possessions. If you do, the lessons and techniques that I have used to transform my own life will serve you well because you will not have to spend as long as I did learning how to be successful. Generally, incarcerated people suffer from three conditions that keep them from being successful: a negative attitude, corrupt values, and extraordinary ignorance. Notice that I did not mention institutional repression, poverty, or racism-even though these are legitimate issues. The reason I did not include these three is because they are outside of the person; whereas, one's attitude, values, and ignorance are inside the person. To be clear, inner issues can be controlled and changed by the person, but outer issues may be beyond the person's ability to control or change. As incarcerated people, we need first to focus on changing ourselves, then later on changing the world.If you use the information contained in this book, you will be able to begin the work necessary to address common issues that incarcerated people face. Once you start working on your issues, you will begin meeting other people who are working on their issues, and you will be able to work together. As you work together with others on your issues, you will make friends and develop useful skills that will contribute to your overall success. Add to that increased education, support, and writing skills; and you will have a new and exciting life that you can be proud of: You will have success in prison.
