LW Rehabilitation in Prisons

• LW Rehabilitation 


  Criminals should be well cared for in prisons so they can re-socialise them for release.

  • They should be given education, qualifications, work skills, counselling, addiction therapy, and life opportunities.
  • Prison should be avoided to stop breaking up families - 90,000 children in UK have a parent serving time.
• LW Rehabilitation - Survey 2012 


  Most prisoners are victims themselves

  • 24% had been in care
  • 40% had a relative who had been in prison
  • 63% had been excluded from school
• Young - LW Rehabilitation 


  Criminals faced exclusion from society and the only way to 'fix' them is to include them.
• Right Wing criticism of LW Rehabilitation

  Clake would suggest that punishments in prison should be as harsh as possible so that the cost outweighs the potential benefit of crime.
