Drug Abuse in the Prison Population
[ send me this paper ]
Since the 1980s, concern for the role that substance abuse plays in crime and recidivism has gained national attention. A number of studies have been conducted to consider the problem of substance abuse and crime, especially in criminal populations, but few studies have been conducted to consider whether in-house substance abuse treatment programs in the prison setting actually reduce recidivism. This 5 page review of literature provides an overview of arguments that correlate substance abuse and repetitive criminal behaviors, and also relates the findings of a few studies which reflect the connection between substance abuse programming and reductions in recidivism.
