Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

The Journal of Offender Rehabilitation publishes research on the processes and outcomes of interventions aimed at reducing recidivism and facilitating successful reintegration of individuals into the community following incarceration. Studies examine the effectiveness of various programs, including treatment, education, and case management, as well as the impact of factors such as religiosity, family integration, and social capital on post-incarceration outcomes. The journal also addresses the specific challenges faced by diverse offender populations, including older adults, women veterans, and juveniles, and explores the experiences of their families.
