Transitions to Better Lives aims to describe, collate, and
summarize a body of recent research both theoretical and empirical
that explores the issue of treatment readiness in offender
programming. It is divided into three sections:
- part one unpacks a model of treatment readiness, and explains
how it has been operationalized
- part two discusses how the construct has been applied to the
treatment of different offender groups
- part three iscusses some of the practice approaches that have
been identified as holding promise in addressing low levels of
offender readiness are discussed.
Included within each section are contributions from a number of
authors whose work, in recent years, has stimulated discussion and
helped to inform practice in offender rehabilitation.
This book is an ideal resource for those who study within the
field of criminology, or who work in the criminal justice system,
and have an interest in the delivery of rehabilitation and
reintegration programmes for offenders. This includes
psychologists, social workers, probation and parole officers, and
prison officers.
