CDCR Report: A Roadmap for Effective Offender Programming in California
June 29, 2007 by
In June 2007, a panel of national experts advising the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) released their report “A Roadmap for Effective Offender Programming in California” that provided 11 key recommendations for improving the state’s rehabilitation model, as well as strategies to significantly reduce recidivism and overcrowding. The Center for Evidence-Based Corrections provided analytic support to the expert panel report in areas related to program participation and practices and mapping parolee returns in the state. The two articles below derive from this work:
- Parolees’ physical closeness to health service providers
- Parolees’ physical closeness to social services
