Extractions: I n addition to developing the technology of Dianetics and Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard also addressed and developed methods to resolve some of society's most devastating problems. These methods are broadly applied in the secular realm at a grass roots level. The Association for Better Living and Education (ABLE) was established in Los Angeles in 1988 to provide direction and programs for these activities, while lending support through fundraising activities. The technologies utilized by ABLE have developed into four general social betterment programs, each addressing a specific area of current social concern: Applied Scholastics, an educational program; Narconon, a drug rehabilitation program; Criminon, a criminal rehabilitation program; and a program for improving public morality based on a nonreligious moral code called "The Way to Happiness." The Church and its parishioners financially support ABLE and its social betterment groups. And while ABLE additionally raises funds through donations and grants from non-Scientology related entities, ABLE and its related organizations do not in turn contribute to the financial support of any Church of Scientology.

Extractions: The new Criminal Justice Initiative signifies the Open Society Institute's strong commitment to reducing the excessive reliance on punishment and incarceration in the United States, and to promoting fair and equal treatment in all aspects of the U.S. criminal justice system. The goal of the CJI is to promote criminal justice policies and practices that are sensible and fair, and to support the redirection of resources away from spending on prisons toward long-term solutions for safe and vibrant communities, including effective crime prevention and rehabilitation programs. The Gideon Project which focuses on fair administration of justice, including the improvement of public defense services; reform of the death penalty through advocacy, legal representation, and research; and the accountable use of discretion by police and prosecutors, particularly around issues of race.

Three major findings are: Americans want to attack the underlying causes of crime rather than the symptoms; prevention is the nations premiere criminal justice goal; harsh prison sentences are being reconsidered as a primary crime-fighting tool, especially for non-violent offenders.

Extractions: A Second Chance Stark cement buildings rose from the sun-scorched Mexican desert, surrounded by high walls and patrolled by armed guards. The environment only added to the harsh outlook of hundreds of hardened criminals behind those walls in the Mexico state prison in 1996. A majority of the inmates were incarcerated for violent crime, including homicide. Most were repeat offenders. More than 80 percent were also heroin addicts, continuing to take the drug while in prison. Mexico was not the first prison where individuals working with the Criminon program encountered prisoners who had been written off as incorrigible. In operation since 1970, Criminon rehabilitation programs have been successfully conducted in prisons throughout the United States and internationally, with a track record of results including significantly lowered recidivism (relapse). Criminon is affiliated with the internationally acclaimed Narconon drug rehabilitation program. Both programs use the discoveries and methods of humanitarian

Extractions: Jerry Marzinsky BA M.Ed is a pioneer in developing a Computer-Assisted Rehabilitation Program that really works. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the feasibility of utilizing inexpensive computers to provide comprehensive, fully measurable, large-scale, substance abuse programming to large prison populations. The adoption and development of this concept would pave the way for the provision of comprehensive, cost effective, objectively measurable programming to virtually every prisoner with a seventh grade reading level. Although these experimental prototypes have been thoroughly and successfully tested within a variety of correctional settings, awareness of their existence and their dispersal has been limited. Years of research into the reasons conventional programs failed when imported into prison environments and how to overcome these failures motivated the evolution of the concept you are about to read about. The feedback of hundreds of staff and inmates was taken into account in the design of this system. The finished product departed from conventional program approaches in many ways: (1) The first radical departure from conventional programs was that this prototype was systematically forced to conform to the requirements of prison operation. Unlike traditional programs, it does not require prisons to conform to program operation. As such these systems meet with little resistance from security and have a track record of reliable, trouble free operation over long periods within high stress environments.

The data collected is reviewed and evaluated by a professional in the field. Mark Hawkins, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Psychology at Maharishi University of Management (MUM) at Fairfield, Iowa, recently presented his research on the TM technique and criminal rehabilitation at the fifth graduation ceremony of The Enlightened Sentencing Project on September 25, 2001. Dr Hawkins presented research on the first 45 probationers (41 males, 4 females) to complete the program with TESP. The research showed significant changes in various forms of impulsivity (reduced attentional and motor impulsivity and increased self-control, perseverance, and ability for cognitive complexity). They also showed highly significant decreases in hostility and aggression (such as indirect and verbal hostility, assault, and irritability). The results of this study indicate that the probationers in the Enlightened Sentencing Project genuinely benefited from the program.

The most powerful weapon in the war on drug abuse is information....solid, accurate information. Scare tactics based on half-truths are generally not effective in combating the problem. Considering the enormity and complexity of the drug abuse crisis in our nation, it is understandable that the average citizen feels bewildered and overwhelmed. It is everyone's responsibility to become informed about drug abuse. Arming ourselves with the facts is the crucial first step in winning the war on drug abuse.

importantly, welldesigned and properly implemented rehabilitation programs substantiallyreduce range of support services, current criminal justice policies
http://www.cjcj.org/about/from_director.php

Extractions: In January 1971 a remarkable event occurred that permanently altered conventional assumptions about justice administration. Jerome G Miller, then commissioner of youth corrections in Massachusetts, systemically carried out the most sweeping reforms in correctional history. He closed the state's five juvenile reform schools and transferred over 1500 youths to an assortment of community-based programs. These actions, which were at first greeted with skepticism and derision by much of the correctional establishment, proved to be revolutionary in changing popular assumptions about the treatment of youth in trouble. Research revealed that when not subject to abusive prison-like conditions, young offenders were less likely to display violent and criminally prone behaviors later on. Most importantly, well-designed and properly implemented rehabilitation programs substantially reduce recidivism among even the most difficult offenders. While the trend toward punitive public policies in recent years has undermined these important lessons, the legacy of Miller's reforms lives on. A growing number of jurisdictions throughout the United States are recognizing the importance of incarceration alternatives to promote offender treatment and social reintegration. Without an adequate range of support services, current criminal justice policies founder on the mistaken belief that offender behavior can be positively impacted by the harsh conditions that pervade modern correctional institutions. By failing to address crime's root causes, criminal justice policies that rely on incarceration exacerbate public safety risks as evidenced by recidivism rates around the country that exceed 70%.

The statute was implemented by the Interim Final Rules published in the Federal Register , Vol. 54, No.19, Tuesday, January 31, 1989. Under these rules, the University of North Texas is required to certify to the Federal government that it is providing drug-free workplaces. This policy implements the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988 at the University. This policy is in addition to and not in lieu of any other University policy. The University reserves the right to take disciplinary action against employees regarding misconduct under this or other applicable policies of the University.
