CRJ 180 Strayer Week 10 Assignment 2 Alternatives to
Incarceration
Details:
Recent study illustrates that nearly two (2) million juveniles
are processed through juvenile courts across the United States each year.
Depending on the nature of the crime, juveniles may face detention or
incarceration if they are convicted. Given the fact that many courts are
reluctant to incarcerate criminal offenders, judges often consider alternatives
to incarceration. The driving force behind these alternatives is to save
taxpayer money yet still demand offender accountability and impose sanctions
for criminal behavior.
Use the Internet or Strayer databases to research the use of
sanctions other than incarceration or detention for juvenile offenders.
Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:
Examine the underlying historical and economic reasons behind
the quest for alternatives to incarcerating offenders in jails and prisons.
Describe three (3) alternatives to incarceration that juvenile
courts currently use. Provide examples of such alternatives in practice to
support the response.
Discuss the significant societal and individual benefits of
imposing sanctions or punishments that do not involve removing an offender from
his / her family or community.
Use at least three (3) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and
other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.
