Sexual Crime and Community Reintegration, Gebunden

Klappentext

This book captures the experience of transitioning from prison to the community, the tensions between risk management, public protection and enabling flourishing in those that have been released from prison. It explores what is required for successful community re-entry for men with sexual convictions and examines barriers as men (re)integrate, and the ways in which men can be assisted with desistance. Topics covered in the book include policing and monitoring, navigating re-entry, community intervention, life after release, experience of licence conditions and trauma-informed care in reintegration. Combining empirical chapters, theoretical reviews, servicer-user voices and a consideration of the latest approach to community reintegration, this book will be relevant to psychologists, criminologists, social workers, practitioners and students. It highlights, for the first time in a single volume and in explicit detail, the experience of transition from prison to the community, the barriers and challenges to (re)integration, but also how we can move forward, how we can help men live meaningful pro-social lives and in doing so fulfil the goal that everyone working in this field wants -- to reduce sexual (re) victimisation.
