Case Management in Community Corrections: Current Status and Future Directions
Day, Andrew; Hardcastle, Lesley; Birgden, Astrid
Journal of Offender Rehabilitation, v51 n7 p484-495 2012
Case management is commonly regarded as the foundation of effective service provision across a wide range of human service settings. This article considers the case management that is offered to clients of community corrections, identifying the distinctive features of case management in this particular setting, and reviewing the empirical evidence relating to the effectiveness of different approaches. It is concluded that models of correctional case management that are clearly informed by the principles of risk, need, and responsivity, and which encourage case managers to form strong and meaningful relationships with their clients, are likely to be the most effective.
