Read the first 7 Rehabilitation Programs Management flashcards as text

  1. Under the responsivity principle of the RNR model, programs should be matched to an inmate's:

    Answer: Learning style, motivation, and cognitive ability

    The responsivity principle requires that program delivery style matches individual characteristics such as learning style, literacy, and readiness to change.

  2. A corrections manager wants to reduce duplication between a mental health unit and a substance abuse program. The BEST approach is:

    Answer: Establish an integrated co-occurring disorders treatment track

    Integrated co-occurring disorders treatment simultaneously addresses mental health and substance use, which is more effective than treating each in isolation.

  3. Which of the following is a key characteristic of a 'criminogenic need' that rehabilitation programs should target?

    Answer: It is dynamic and changeable through intervention

    Criminogenic needs are dynamic risk factors that can be reduced through targeted intervention, distinguishing them from static factors like criminal history.

  4. A reentry planning coordinator should begin working with an inmate on release preparation:

    Answer: Well in advance of the projected release date, ideally months before

    Effective reentry planning requires time to secure housing, employment, treatment, and benefits, necessitating early engagement well before release.

  5. Motivational Interviewing (MI) is used in correctional rehabilitation primarily to:

    Answer: Increase an inmate's intrinsic motivation to change behavior

    MI is a collaborative, person-centered counseling style that elicits and strengthens an individual's own motivation and commitment to change.

  6. When a rehabilitation program consistently shows poor outcomes despite good attendance, the manager should FIRST examine:

    Answer: Whether program content targets actual criminogenic needs of participants

    Poor outcomes despite engagement typically indicate a mismatch between program content and the participants' actual criminogenic needs.

  7. Which community partner is MOST critical to secure before an inmate's release to reduce recidivism?

    Answer: A stable housing provider

    Stable housing upon release is one of the strongest predictors of successful reintegration, with homelessness being a major recidivism risk factor.
