Description
In the Unit 2 Discussion Board, you researched a specific criminal behavior and engaged in a discussion on the implications of criminal offending. In your criminal law course, you learned an important concept involving the use of the criminal sanction. Specifically, while the purpose of the criminal sanction is to punish the crime, it is the responsibility of the criminal justice system to provide treatment, when necessary, to the offender.
Using the interpersonal crime that you selected for the Unit 2 Discussion Board, practice your research skills by conducting a treatment inventory. A treatment inventory is a research activity collating the state of treatment programming with an emphasis on what exists and the reported effectiveness of those treatment interventions.
In preparing your treatment inventory, supply a statement of the problem documenting the extent of the direct and indirect harm caused by this crime. Offer no less than 3 different treatment (intervention) programs aimed at reducing the crime, and supply at least 1 research study that was conducted on the treatment intervention. Consider whether this research works to reduce recidivism.
The treatment inventory will be 2 pages and will include a chart comparing the different treatment (intervention) programs. The specific steps are as follows:
Select any 1 of the following criminal behaviors:
Intimate Partner Violence
Sexual Offending
Physical World Stalking
Cyberstalking.
Conduct independent research on treatment programming used to treat offenders who commit this crime.
In 1 paragraph, provide a statement of the problem documenting the extent of the direct and indirect harm caused by this crime.
Provide a summary of no fewer than 3 different treatment (intervention) programs aimed at reducing the crime.
Provide at least 1 research study that was conducted on the treatment intervention, emphasizing what is known about the effectiveness of the treatment intervention.
Create a chart comparing the different treatment (intervention programs).
Use no fewer than 6 scholarly resources.
Please submit your assignment.
