We examined the capacity of probation services in dealing with a considerably large number of drink-driving offenders and in developing specific rehabilitation programmes for them. Further on, we analysed whether there is a correspondence between the drink-driving offender’s profile and the intervention measures used. To succeed in this endeavour, we used the documentary analysis and the questionnaire method. To conclude, we noticed that the social reintegration programmes applied for drink-driving offenders in Romania generally correspond to the offender’s profile, but their application is hampered by the limited resources. Despite these impediments, the Romanian Probation System has gained the courts confidence and its position in the community has strengthened.","PeriodicalId":44523,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Probation","volume":"13 1","pages":"111 - 144"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/2066220320976102","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49097068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This Special Issue of the European Journal of Probation delves into American probation and parole models, practices, and policies, stemming from an American Society of Criminology panel from 2019. The articles in this issue revolve around different types of models, practices, and policies, but also specifically on their implementation and sustainability. This Special Issue offers timely insight regarding “what works” and “how” in community corrections as the field continues to grow, with approximately 4.4 million individuals supervised on probation or parole at year-end 2018 in the United States (Maruschak and Minton, 2020). However, understanding how these models, practices, and policies implement in real-world settings is of utmost importance—an effective program or practice implemented poorly is unlikely to result in desired outcomes (Fixsen et al., 2009). Implementation, adaptation or modification, and sustainability of evidencebased practices (EBPs) also has received very little, albeit growing, attention in the field of corrections. I hope that this issue provides interesting and useful information and considerations for correctional agencies regarding implementation and sustainability of models, practices, and policies from the clients, to staff, to the organization as a whole. This Special Issue should allow us to think critically about how correctional research can best be translated into working with effectively and efficiently with correctional agencies, staff, and their clients, create collaborative working relationships between researchers and those that work in the field, and identify areas of success and areas for improvement. In this issue, models, practices, and policies discussed include the risk-need-responsivity (RNR) model of offender assessment and rehabilitation, core correctional practices (CCPs), as well as Swift, Certain, and Fair (SCF) community supervision practices (also referred to as the HOPE model or Swift and Certain (SAC) models). The RNR model of assessment and rehabilitation identifies principles that can effectively reduce recidivism— matching level of service to level of risk for recidivism, matching services and programming that target risk factors that are amenable to change (criminogenic needs), and matching the style and mode of learning to individuals while also using treatment models most effective among justice-involved populations (e.g. cognitive-behavioral techniques, social learning-based practices, etc.) (Bonta and Andrews, 2017). In addition, another article discusses the integration of social capital as part of the RNR model of offender assessment and rehabilitation. Further, this Special Issue also includes information on paroling authorities and their support and incorporation of evidence-based practices (EBPs).

This study presents a selection of results from a survey of paroling authorities across the United States conducted in 2015. We analyze and discuss survey results on the following three topics: (1) What is the structure and power/authority of the paroling authorities? (2) What are the appointments and requirements of paroling authorities? and (3) What evidence-based practices are paroling authorities utilizing? These results demonstrate the state of evidence-based practices in parole decision-making and illustrate ways in which paroling authorities can implement policies and practices that promote sustainability of evidence-based practices in community supervision. The findings indicate that many paroling authorities have adopted policies supportive of evidence-based practices; however, there are some areas in which parole can create continuity and promote better application of them.","PeriodicalId":44523,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Probation","volume":"12 1","pages":"182 - 199"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2020-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1177/2066220320980870","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46930746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This book offers a kaleidoscopic overview of themes around electronic monitoring (EM) that were researched and/or published in other languages (e.g. English, Dutch) during the recent decades. After an extensive chapter explaining the purpose of the book and the choice of selected themes, 11 different contributions are provided by a select international group of authors, from the United States, the United Kingdom, Belgium, France, and Germany. These contributions are divided into three main parts, namely, (1) Le bracelet électronique comme solution d’action publique et comme marché [The electronic bracelet as a solution for public action and as a market]; (2) Le bracelet électronique comme peine et instrument de surveillance [The electronic bracelet as punishment and monitoring instrument]; and (3) La surveillance électronique comme dispositif sociotechnique de surveillance [Electronic surveillance as a sociotechnical surveillance device]. In the first part of the book, Lilly & Thomas analyze the emergence and evolution of the Electronic Monitoring (EM) market in the United States (1. Prendre la mesure du marché de la surveillance électronique aux États-Unis [Taking on the issues of the electronic monitoring market in the United States]). They see great similarities with the “prison-industrial complex” (or “penal-commercial complex”) and the characteristic interdependence between the public sector and the private market. In the United States, EM experienced a strong advance (in frequency of use) in the mid-1980s. Whereas it was applied in 21 states in 1987, it became used in 44 states 2 years later. It is however difficult to estimate the size and value of the EM-market. Moreover, the figures for this market, and by extension the whole correctional market, are very different (due, among other things, to a lack of clarity regarding the field of application (State and/or federal level), different definitions of correctional costs, etc.). Nevertheless, it appears that EM represents only a fraction of the overall “correctional cake.” Indeed less than 1% of the total number of persons under judicial supervision are monitored electronically.

Research finds when probation agencies implement evidence-based practices in line with the Risk, Need, Responsivity model with fidelity, reductions in recidivism are possible.

To assist in the translation of evidence-based practices to real-world practice, researchers and practitioners developed community supervision officer training programmes. Using qualitative interview data of trained federal probation officers, this study examined the implementation of the Staff Training Aimed at Reducing Rearrest. This study explored (1) probation officer attitudes and perceptions of Staff Training Aimed at Reducing Rearrest, training and implementation process; (2) how users and coaches implement key components of Staff Training Aimed at Reducing Rearrest; and (3) the organisational facilitators and barriers associated with Staff Training Aimed at Reducing Rearrest implementation.

Research over the past several decades provides that fidelity to Risk–Need–Responsivity and core correctional practice can reduce recidivism among the community correctional population. However, the correctional field has a history of training staff, but limited success in implementing and sustaining these practices. The current qualitative study analyzes the feedback from 307 community supervision officers who responded to open-ended questions regarding the implementation of Effective Practices in Community Supervision model, a curriculum that incorporates the Risk–Need–Responsivity model and core correctional practices.
