The timing of correctional reintegration program delivery : a review of international correctional agencies / Mansanga Tanga, Kaitlyn Wardrop & Chelsea Sheahan.: PS83-3/448E-PDF

"Correctional reintegration programs (CRPs) are an essential part of many correctional agencies' efforts to rehabilitate incarcerated men and women. While it was previously thought that relatively few CRPs were effective at reducing offender recidivism, recent empirical evidence has found that CRPs that adhere to the Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) principles reduce offenders' risk of reoffending by 17 to 35 percent. Given these findings, scholars and correctional agencies are now exploring additional ways to optimize the efficacy and efficiency of correctional interventions, such as determining the best practices in timely access to correctional programming, including the best practices in timing of access to improve program completion rates and help reduce the risk of recidivism"--Executive summary, page iii.
