Working with Sex Offenders in Prisons and through Release to the
Community is the first study of its kind to look at a wide range of
issues and problems relating to the management of sexual offenders
in prisons and their reintegration into the community. Spencer's
analysis of the delivery of prison-based offence-specific
programmes, both within the broader context of criminal justice
systems and the community provides valuable insight into the
relationship between prisons and other agencies dealing with sex
offenders. Spencer makes a strong case for implementing treatment
for sexual offenders within prisons, as well as the need for
support and supervision in the community once released. His
multi-agency approach is an innovative and cohesive strategy for
effective interventions, and highlights major issues which need to
be addressed so that programmes stand a chance of succeeding in a
penal setting. The issues involved in the setting up of programmes,
the creation of the right environment, and the support and training
of staff, are universally applicable; as are discussions of risk
assessment, the links between victims and offenders, sex offenders
in special hospitals, women as sex abusers, the use of pornography
and sexual offender notification. This book is essential reading,
not only for specialists in the field, but also for students and
professionals working in related areas.
