From the Back Cover

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the effective methods used in the criminal justice system in the United States to counsel and treat offenders. This new edition outlines innovative approaches to counselling and treatment that focus on recent developments that present new challenges to those practitioners engaged in counselling and treating of criminal and delinquent offenders.

The volume is broken down into three sections:

  • Correctional Counseling and Treatment: Past and Present
  • The Diverse Roles of Counselors in Correctional Treatment
  • Treatment Methods Used in Corrections

In each section, the chapters address the role of legislation on the corrections process and how it impacts diverse populations of correctional facilities, including juvenile offenders; those with mental illness, addiction and substance abuse problems, or physical and mental disabilities; and homeless populations. Featuring interviews with correctional practitioners, discussion questions, case studies, and application tools, this volume is ideal for advanced undergraduate and early graduate-level students taking for courses in correctional treatment, correctional rehabilitation, or community corrections.
