We are delighted you are interested in learning about our program offerings. Our goal is to develop a web page that will provide helpful information about the program to potential students, alumni, current students, employers, and other interested individuals. In our efforts to provide information that will answer as many of your immediate questions as possible, we are aware that we then have created a web site that is quite "wordy" and maybe overwhelming. Use the web site as a resource to look up specific information as the questions come to you. Additionally, the web site was intentially designed to be functional for persons with limited vision and thus is presented in text format so that it may be accessed by all potential students, especially individuals who would be using screen readers. We will be adding and updating the web page on a continuous basis. If your internet service provider software options have been selected to automatically refresh webpages that are frequently viewed, then each time you visit the RHBL web site, the pages will show you any changes we have made to the site. If you are unaware if this option has been selected, you can go into "VIEW" pull-down menu and select the option of "REFESH." This will enable you to view the latest version of the web site rather than the cache version, ie, the last version of the web site in your computer's memory. Please send us suggestions of items you think should be added as well as current information on the web page that you think should be clarified. We are interested in your feedback on our web page and look forward to hearing from you.

Having put youth-government relations into the social welfare and provincial law context, the authors introduce the Youth Criminal Justice Act , (which was being debated by the Senate at the time of publication) and equip readers and instructors with a basic understanding of the new legislation and how it will change the way in which justice is sought for youth criminal involvement.

President, SHYRAK Foundation, Almaty What made me to set up a non-governmental charitable organization in 1998 ? Its happened so, that once I was invited to translate an American pastors sermon in a female penal colony in Almaty. What I have seen there shocked me! Many of these women test loneliness because of separation from family or friends, bore because of absence of intelligent occupations, feelings of a hopelessness. I understood that prisons desperately need open, inventive programs for psychological rehabilitation of inmates and defense of their human rights. For the access to Kazakh prisons is allowed only to volunteers from NGOs, except prison officers, it stirred me to make shift in my activity in favor of the latter, through institution of the Foundation.

inmates are denied access to rehabilitation programs due to AI Abrams, Journal ofCriminal Justice 15 Founder of Maharishi Integrated System of rehabilitation.
http://www.istpp.org/rehabilitation/page_03.html

Extractions: T wo crucial issues face our correctional systems today: excessive levels of stress for correctional staff and inmates, and high rates of recidivism. Though governments spend tens of billions of taxpayer dollars each year on corrections, these problems remain unsolved. It's time for a new approach. High Levels of Stress and Recidivism High levels of stress in prisons cause many problems for correctional staff. These include ill health, family breakdown, disciplinary problems, substance abuse, early retirement, and a life span sixteen years less than the general population. High levels of inmate stress also produce ill health. They lead to increased prison violence, increased rule infractions, and other dysfunctional behavior. There is an urgent need for the introduction of a cost-effective program to eliminate these problems. Despite the earnest efforts of correctional professionals over many decades, recidivism rates remain high. The U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics has estimated that two-thirds of felony prisoners reoffend within three years of release. The effectiveness of existing rehabilitation programs has been repeatedly challenged in the criminological literature for over twenty years. Additionally, many inmates are denied access to rehabilitation programs due to the lack of resources.

http://www.usccb.org/sdwp/criminal.htm

Extractions: We are still a long way from the time when our conscience can be certain of having done everything possible to prevent crime and to control it effectively so that it no longer does harm and, at the same time, to offer to those who commit crimes a way of redeeming themselves and making a positive return to society. If all those in some way involved in the problem tried to . . . develop this line of thought, perhaps humanity as a whole could take a great step forward in creating a more serene and peaceful society.

Extractions: Probation and Parole Officers and Related Occupations (NOC 4155) Nature of the Work Probation officers monitor the conduct and behaviour of criminal offenders serving probation terms. They also monitor the reintegration of criminal offenders serving the remainder of sentences while conditionally released into the community on parole. Classification officers assess inmates and develop rehabilitation programs for criminal offenders who are incarcerated in correctional facilities. These workers are employed by federal and provincial governments and work in the community and in correctional facilities. In British Columbia probation officers work for B.C. Corrections, whereas parole officers work for the National Parole Board. As well, in B.C. correctional institutions, the functions of classification officers and correctional officers are combined. Main Duties Probation officers interview offenders to prepare pre-sentence reports and assess offenders' prospects for successful reintegration into the community. They plan rehabilitation programs with offenders, establishing rules of conduct, goals and objectives, and they refer offenders to community and social service programs as required. They also supervise the terms of a probation order, as well as interview probationers and parolees regularly to evaluate their progress in accomplishing goals and maintaining the terms specified in their probation contracts and rehabilitation plans. In addition, they recommend remedial action or initiate court action when there is a willful failure to comply with terms of probation or parole.

http://fairfield.freehosting.net/96-97winter/judge.html

Extractions: Dec./Jan., 1996/97 "I wish for everyone who comes through these doors that they seek and they find enlightenment." With these words, Judge Sherri Sullivan of Missouri's 22nd Circuit Court inaugurated the Transcendental Meditation Center for Probationers in St. Louis on October 24. Judge Sullivan was one of four judges and two state legislators who attended the inauguration of the new center, where offenders who are sentenced to learn TM as a condition of their probation will be instructed. The opening of the center is another step in the continuing work of Farrokh Anklesaria, Director of the Department of Rehabilitation at Maharishi University of Management. Over a year ago, Anklesaria met Judge David Mason, also of Missouri's 22nd Circuit Court, at a criminal justice conference where they were both featured speakers. On March 11, Judge Mason called Anklesaria and said that after studying the scientific research, he was convinced that TM should be used as a correctional tool. He asked Anklesaria to be present for a press conference where he would announce his decision to make the Transcendental Meditation program a condition of probation. That evening, three Missouri TV stations featured stories on Judge Mason's decision. Since then, Judge Mason has made TM instruction a condition of probation for 10 convicted offenders.
Center For Criminology And Criminal Justice Research
http://www.la.utexas.edu/research/cccjr/newsfall98.htm

Extractions: The Center's Mission The Center for Criminology and Criminal Justice Research (CCCJR) was launched in the fall of 1996 with a primary mission of conducting basic research on crime and criminal justice, collaborating with the public sector agencies in addressing critical issues in criminal justice practice, administration, and policy, and promoting discussion and dialogue about crime and criminal justice. The Center is currently engaged in two funded research projects. One, which is sponsored by the National Institute of Justice, is a collaborative project with the Texas Youth Commission (TYC) evaluating the Commission's chemical dependency treatment. The second, funded by the Hogg Foundation for Mental Health, is a state-wide evaluation of the assessment and referral of youthful offenders at initial contact with juvenile authorities. This project is being conducted in collaboration with the Texas Juvenile Probation Commission. Professor George W. Holden, a Center Research Associate and Associate Professor of Psychology, was recently awarded a research grant from the Hogg Foundation for Mental Health to study the impact of domestic violence. The two year grant is entitled "Wife Batterers as Fathers: The Influence of Child and Parent Characteristics on the Quality of Parenting."
