INSTRUCTIONS:
Discuss objectives and issues for alternative sentencing. Identify ways in which probation meets or fails to meet the goals of sentencing, considering how probation is not often perceived as a function of corrections. The textbook provides several examples of community corrections as a means of reintegrating formerly incarcerated persons into communities. Explain how reintegration after a term of incarceration relates to social justice and criminal justice objectives. In addition, give an example of a community corrections effort whose aim is assisting with reintegration.
