In response to recognition in the late 1960s and early 1970s that traditional incarceration was not working, alternatives to standard prison settings were sought and developed. One of those alternatives -- community-based corrections -- had been conceived in the 1950s as a system that might prove more progressive, humane, and effective, particularly with people who had committed less serious criminal offenses and for whom incarceration, with constant exposure to serious offenders and career criminals, might prove more damaging than rehabilitative. The alternative of community corrections has evolved to become a substantial part of the criminal justice and correctional system, spurred in rece...

Handbook on Risk and Need Assessment

The Handbook on Risk and Need Assessment: Theory and Practice covers risk assessments for individuals being considered for parole or probation. Evidence-based approaches to such decisions help take the emotion and politics out of community corrections.

The ASC Division on Corrections & Sentencing Handbook Series will publish volumes on topics ranging from violence risk assessment to specialty courts for drug users, veterans, or the mentally ill. Each thematic volume focuses on a single topical issue that intersects with corrections and sentencing research.

mmm... Manitoba

A tasty oral history In 2018, Janis Thiessen, Kimberley Moore, and collaborator Kent Davies refashioned a used food truck into a mobile oral history lab. Together they embarked on a journey around Manitoba, gathering stories about the province’s food and the people who make, sell, and eat it. Along the way, they visited restaurant owners, beer brewers, grocers, farmers, scholars, and chefs in their kitchens and businesses, online, and on board the food truck. The team conducted nearly seventy interviews and indulged in a bounty of prairie delicacies, from Winnipeg’s “Fat Boys” to Steinbach’s perogies to Churchill’s cloudberry jam. Thiessen and Moore serve up the results of this r...

Finding Excellence

The book discusses concepts of constructive workplace dissent, psychological safety and joy at work. These concepts are supported by real workplace voices from Christian leaders who are trailblazing transformational leadership in their lives. Certain parts of the book use illustrations to emphasize key concepts covered herein. There is frequently a gap between the need for feedback and how to foster it constructively. Ideas make organizations thrive, but employees are frequently unable to communicate these ideas in ways that the leadership finds palatable. Management and leadership need to acquire the requisite skills to facilitate the entrenchment of constructive workplace criticism in their organizational cultures. The book proposes an EHIP framework leadership model for flourishing employee talents, whilst uncovering issues of Emotional well-being, Goodwill dissent and Human flourishing (EGH) in the workplace. Leadership models such as calling-based leadership, incarnational leadership, contextual leadership, shalom leadership, servant leadership, appreciative inquiry, and assets-based community development are covered, all anchored in the biblical verse Philippians 4: 8 – 9.
