Managing Time
Mitigate the oppressiveness of timeProvide opportunities for prisoners to
improve their livesKeep prison time from becoming dead
timeMore programs offered, the less likely
inmates’ boredom will translate into hostility toward the staff
![Page 6: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Managing Time
• Prison program:– Any formal, structured activity that takes
prisoners out of their cells and sets them to instrumental tasks.
– 5 types:• Rehabilitative• Medical service• Industrial• Daily facility maintenance• Recreational
![Page 7: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Learning Objective 2
Learning objective 2: Describe the ways that security acts as a constraint on correctional programs offered in institutional settings.

Constraints of Security
Whenever a program requires sharp tools, heavy security prevails. Security requires tool counts, searches,
and detailed accounting of materials.Security requirements make
maintenance and industrial programs inefficient.
![Page 9: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Least Eligibility
The doctrine that prisoners ought to receive no goods or services in excess of those available to people who have lived within the law. General public often quite hostile to create
programming. Public does not want to reward criminal
activity. Prison programs frequently represent weak
versions of free-society program.

Classification
• Process by which prisoners are assigned to types of custody and treatment.– Sentenced felon introduced to the new status of
prison– Depersonalize the inductee– Serves as management tool to ensure inmates are
assigned to units appropriate to their custody level:• Separated from those who might victimize them• Grouped with members of their work
assignment

Classification
• Objective classification:– Predictive model:
• Designed to distinguish inmates with respect to risk of escape, potential misconduct, and future criminal behavior.
• Statistical techniques– Equity-based model:
• Use only a few explicitly defined legal variables reflecting current and previous criminal characteristics, not used:– Race– Employment– Education
![Page 14: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

time– Viewed as part of the reformative process
• Prison maintenance programs:– Typical prison must provide every major service
available in a community:• Fire department• Electrical and plumbing• Janitorial maintenance• Mail delivery• Restaurant• Drug store

Institutional Programs
Maintenance programs cont.: Constitute an elaborate pecking order of
assignments Choice jobs involve access to power Essential to managing the prison:
Lower the cost of operations by eliminating the need to hire outside labor.
Job hierarchy provides rewards and punishments to enforce discipline.
![Page 18: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Institutional Programs
Recreational: Two primary functions:
Integral to prison social life Can be rehabilitative in several ways:
Teach social skills as cooperation and teamwork
Provide a means for prisoners to grow in experience and enhance their self-image
Serve as a productive counterpoint to the general alienation of prison

Correctional Rehabilitation
• Martinson’s 1974 study indicating prison rehabilitation ineffective.
• New vision:– Prison a place that should provide safe and
secure custody while punishing offenders.
• Criminogenic needs:– Needs than, when successfully addressed
by treatment programs, result in lower rates of recidivism.
![Page 21: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Correctional Rehabilitation
• Six conditions identified by researchers under which treatment will be effective:– Directed toward high-risk clients.– Responds to offenders’ problems that caused the
criminal behavior– Take into account offenders’ psychological
maturity– Providers are allowed professional discretion on
how to manage offenders’ progress in treatment– Are fully implemented as intended– Offenders receive follow-up support after
completing the treatment programs
![Page 22: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Correctional Industry
The contract labor, piece price, and lease systems:A contractor provided raw materials
and agreed to purchase goods made by prison inmates at a set price.
The public account system:A prison bought machinery and raw
materials with which inmates manufactured a salable product.
![Page 25: FAULKNER UNIVERSITY CRIMINAL JUSTICE PROGRAM INSTRUCTOR: BILL FILMORE HTTP://FILMORE.NET/FAULKNERCLASS/INDEX.HTML Chapter Fourteen Institutional Programs](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cc05503460f94986021/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

produced by prison industries are purchased by state institutions and agencies exclusively and never enter the free market.
The public works and ways system:A labor system under which prison
inmates work on public construction and maintenance projects.

Current Pressures
Most rehabilitative programs have serious shortcomings and limited effectiveness.
Large number of inmates are not considered to need educational, vocational training, or drug/alcohol rehabilitation.
Services provided in prison settings are substantially less effective than same programs in community.

Postrelease Function
Conditions of release: Restrictions on conduct that parolees must
obey as a legally binding requirement of being released.
Parole boards only release about 1/4 of inmates (65% in 1976)

violation): Usually involve noncriminal conduct (fail
to change address)Most occur when parolee is arrested
on a serious charge or cannot be located
Parole is a privilege
