Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed account of the Illinois PreStart program, a groundbreaking reform effort in parole supervision. Launched in 1991 amidst a turbulent policy environment, the program sought to address the challenges of a prison system facing overcrowding, budget constraints, and a shift in correctional philosophies. PreStart introduced a bifurcated system, separating surveillance and supervision functions from integrative social service provision. The book examines the genesis and evolution of this reform, tracing its roots to national trends, such as the questioning of traditional parole models and the search for cost-effective community-based sanctions. The author offers a comprehensive analysis of the factors that shaped PreStart's development, exploring policy context, implementation challenges, and system-wide issues. By providing insights into the complexities of parole reform and the interplay between policy, practice, and organizational dynamics, this book contributes to a deeper understanding of correctional policy and its impact on parole supervision. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. …
