Hi Karen,
I was interested to see your promotion of the new book by Shadd Maruna and Tony Ward dealing with the rehabilitation of offenders. It is indeed the human and social needs that must be targetted and addressed. Punishement by itself merely re-affirms past failings. You might like to look at our web site www.lifechangeuk.com and our linked blog. There you will see our experience for such work here in the UK. Good luck with your efforts.
Kind regards,
Trevor Philpott
