“…Second, authorities should take steps to ensure that the interventions provided to inmates throughout the jail system are evidence-based (i.e., have empirical support regarding its effectiveness in improving offender behavior; MacKenzie, 2006; Serin, 2005). Departments should consider periodically taking an inventory of its programs to ensure the most effective services are being provided (Campbell et al, 2019). Third, administrators should also consider the location of where treatment programs and other services are offered.…”

“…Needs assessment, implemented successfully within prison, can be used to help identify appropriate programs for individuals in which both outcomes are simultaneously targeted. In a recent study, examining programs offered in Washington's prisons, Campbell, Abboud, Van Wormer, Hamilton, and Posey (2018) identified programmatic solutions that target both long-term recidivism outcomes and intermediate outcomes, including infractions. Programs in which employment, criminal thinking, and aggression are targeted have been used with surprising success (Andrews and Bonta, 2015;Campbell et al, 2018;Hamilton, Van Wormer, Campbell, and Posey, 2015;Landenberger and Lipsey, 2005).…”

The effects of these programs can lead to achieving long-term goals of reducing recidivism and intermediate targets of decreasing infraction behavior, and in turn, of increasing facility and public safety.…”

“…This has significant value but is limited. Most have weak external validity (JRSA, 2014;NIJ, 1998;Pawson & Tilley, 1997), which makes generalizing to other contexts difficult and poses replication challenges (Campbell et al, 2019;JRSA, 2014;Pawson & Tilley, 1997). Outcome and impact evaluations also do not explain how or why a program worked or failed (Mears, 2010;Miller & Miller, 2015;Pawson & Tilley, 1997).…”
