Effectiveness of the Integrated Correctional Program Model (ICPM) for federal offenders identified as perpetrators of spousal assault / prepared by Larry Motiuk and Ben Vuong.: PS82-4/16-2E-PDF

"The national implementation of Correctional Service of Canada’s (CSC) Integrated Correctional Program Model (ICPM) represents a paradigm shift in correctional program delivery from multi-program sequencing or stacking to three distinct correctional program streams for men offenders: a multi-target program, an Aboriginal multi-target program, and a sex offender program, all of which include a maintenance component. ICPM is designed to enhance the overall continuum of support and risk management of offenders in institutions and in the community; enhance the management and efficiency of correctional programs; allow greater capacity for offenders to access and complete correctional programs, and to do so earlier in their sentences; address the individual needs of offenders in the most efficient, culturally-relevant and holistic way possible. As with any change to correctional program delivery concerns may arise as to whether or not it adequately addresses domestic violence. Consequently, a comparative analysis between ICPM, the Family Violence Prevention Program (FVPP) and other National Recognized Correctional Programs (NRCP) was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of ICPM is in reducing returns to federal custody among perpetrators of spousal assault"--Why we did this study, p.
