Download or read book The SON S City Reentry Management Systems written by Victor Ramsey and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title of this work "The SON'S City Reentry Management Systems" is the result of viewing it as a lighted path for those who have been subjected to darkness in their life due to addiction to alcohol and other drugs and have been victims of frequent trips to penal institutions and constant use and abuse of said substances. The word SON'S refers to the Lord. The balance of the title is indicative of the knowledge that Jesus loved the city and that much of His ministry was founded there according to this author. The play on words SON'S versus sun's is to infer that the light produced by the sun is not comparable to the light induced in each of us by the Light of our life. This light is on the path that can lead one to successfully entering a life void of the pitfalls of those that keep one in the revolving door in and out of both addictions to drugs and prison.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a series of newly commissioned essays from the leading scholars and advocates in criminal justice, Invisible Punishment explores, for the first time, the far-reaching consequences of our current criminal justice policies. Adopted as part of “get tough on crime” attitudes that prevailed in the 1980s and '90s, a range of strategies, from “three strikes” and “a war on drugs,” to mandatory sentencing and prison privatization, have resulted in the mass incarceration of American citizens, and have had enormous effects not just on wrong-doers, but on their families and the communities they come from. This book looks at the consequences of these policies twenty years later.

Download or read book But They All Come Back written by Jeremy Travis and published by The Urban Insitute. This book was released on 2005 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The iron law of imprisonment is that “they all come back”. In 2002, more than 630,000 individuals left U.S. federal and state prisons. Thirty years ago, only 150,000 did. In this study, Travis decribes the new realities of imprisonment, and explores the impact of returning prisoners on seven policy domains: public safety, families and children, work, housing, public health, civic identity, and community capacity. Travis proposes a new architecture for the criminal justice system, organized around five principles of reentry, to encourage change and spur innovation.
