Rehabilitation and programming
In September 1971, one of the worse disturbances in correctional history occurred at Attica, New York. Forty-three deaths occurred during the disturbance and its aftermath. Conditions at the facility emphasized security over rehabilitation or programming.
Assignment #3 will focus on how rehabilitation and programming can assist with keeping correctional institutions safe and secure. Students will write a 2-3 page paper about the importance of rehabilitation and programming in a correctional setting.
