One of the current trends in the correctional system is to provide rehabilitative care. This means helping those with criminal histories understand the correctional system, finding programs to help them while they are incarcerated, and connecting them with other resources once they leave the facility. For this activity, you will come up with a guide for newly incarcerated inmates. This guide will include two parts: Part 1: An introduction to the US prison system Part 2: Rehabilitative options that will help inmates be successful after release The following components must be included: Part 1 • A section explaining how prison today differs from the early years of incarceration • A section on the differences between jails and prisons • A section describing the key similarities and differences of local, state, and federal facilities Part 2 • At least three programs/services offenders can participate in as part of their rehabilitation plan • Tips for reentering society once an inmate has been released from jail or paroled from prison </nStep 1: Research Elements and Documentation Before you begin creating your guide, take a moment to research the history of the US prison system as well as the three main types of correctional facilities. You will also need to look for information on rehabilitation services that these facilities provide. If you'd like, you can develop and present your own program ideas instead of recommending programs that already exist. Finally, you'll want to think about ways offenders can stay out of trouble once they are released./nStep 2: Create Your Guide Next, you'll need to place all of this information into a guide. You'll want to imagine, as you are writing it, that new inmates will be reading this guide and are your target audience. What knowledge do you have that could help them move past a life of crime and into one that is more fulfilling? You don't need to use a special program, simply type up your guide as a word processing document. If you'd like, you can find or create a template to structure your guide. You can include images, but it is not required. To complete this activity, please submit your guide.
