This comprehensive guide provides a solution-focused and strengths-based approach to becoming an effective Prison Officer. Written and developed by a collective of ex-prisoners who have since transitioned into successful careers in the criminal justice field, the book draws upon their firsthand experiences and a wealth of diverse literature on prisons and penal policy to examine both exemplary and suboptimal practices in the profession.
At the heart of this book lies the belief that individuals with direct experiences of custody and incarceration possess a unique and valuable perspective on the effectiveness of penal practices. While these voices are frequently sought through research, it is rare for them to take center stage in the conversation. This book aims to rectify this imbalance. By exploring themes such as discretion, respect, relationships, and legitimacy, it offers practical recommendations for fostering a rehabilitative culture within prisons.
This book is of immense interest to practitioners, researchers, and educators alike. It serves as a vital resource for all individuals engaged with prisons, punishment, penal practice, desistance, and rehabilitation. By delving into the intricacies of professional practice and offering insights from those who have lived the experiences firsthand, this book provides a valuable contribution to the ongoing discourse on criminal justice and rehabilitation.
