Routledge Handbook on Offenders with Special Needs

Routledge Handbook on Offenders with Special Needs

Current estimates indicate that approximately 2. 2 million people are incarcerated in federal state and local correctional facilities across the United States. There are another 5 million under community correctional supervision. Many of these individuals fall into the classification of special needs or special populations (e. g. women juveniles substance abusers mentally ill aging chronically or terminally ill offenders). Medical care and treatment costs represent the largest portion of correctional budgets and estimates suggest that these costs will continue to rise. In the community probation and parole officers are responsible for helping special needs offenders find appropriate treatment resources. Therefore it is important to understand the needs of these special populations and how to effectively care for and address their individual concerns. The Routledge Handbook of Offenders with Special Needs is an in-depth examination of offenders with special needs such as those who are learning-challenged developmentally disabled and mentally ill as well as substance abusers sex offenders women juveniles and chronically and terminally ill offenders. Areas that previously have been unexamined (or examined in a limited way) are explored. For example this text carefully examines the treatment of gay lesbian bisexual and transgender offenders and racial and gender disparities in health care delivery as well as pregnancy and parenthood behind bars homelessness and the incarceration of veterans and immigrants. In addition the book presents legal and management issues related to the treatment and rehabilitation of special populations in prisons/jails and the community including police-citizen interactions diversion through specialty courts obstacles and challenges related to reentry and reintegration and the need for the development and implementation of evidence-based criminal justice policies and practices. This is a key collection for students taking courses in prisons penology criminal justice criminology and related areas of study and an essential resource for academics and practitioners working with offenders with special needs. | Routledge Handbook on Offenders with Special Needs

Inclusive Education at the Crossroads Exploring Effective Special Needs Provision in Global Contexts

Inclusive Education at the Crossroads Exploring Effective Special Needs Provision in Global Contexts

Inclusive Education at the Crossroads explores the short and long-term effectiveness of government plans to reform policy for special needs education confronting difficult questions on policies about inclusion and suggesting alternative ways forward for achieving more effective education of children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Inclusion has been a central concern for education systems globally for over three decades. However has preoccupation with inclusion been at the expense of effective education for children with SEND? Where do policies for inclusion lead and do they amount to the special education reform that is needed? What do the worldwide experiences of inclusion and special education reveal about how to improve the quality of education systems for all children in the future? How effective is provision for children with SEND today? Through this informative and topical book Gordon-Gould and Hornby shine an interrogating spotlight on current provision for SEND and ask if current legislation and policy inadvertently reinforce problems; if they cause many children with SEND to fall short of their potential as well as preventing many schools from improving their levels of overall academic attainment. Inclusive Education at the Crossroads provides theory and research for teachers school leaders governors policy makers researchers parents post graduate students and anyone seeking practical solutions to meeting the needs of pupils with SEND in any global context. It will encourage open debate about the essence of educational inclusion in order to stimulate creative thinking among all stakeholders. | Inclusive Education at the Crossroads Exploring Effective Special Needs Provision in Global Contexts
