“…These communities, apart from motivating clients to stay away from drugs and crime, should inculcate skills that help reintegrate them into social groups, and provide support for finding meaning and purpose post-release. This suggests the need to involve professionals who (perhaps using multimodal strategies including cognitive-behavioral therapy) may help individualize treatment options to offenders (Weekes et al, 2013). This is challenging in Malaysia, a developing country with resource constraints.…”

This study explores lived experiences of repeat drug offenders in Malaysia, their reasons for recidivating, and related shortcomings in prison rehabilitation programs.

We are able, as a result, to shed light on these offenders’ perspectives on the treatment efforts in which they were involved.

This article examines developments in mobile technologies that target the treatment and support needs of offenders in the community, and sets out three challenges that must be addressed if these interventions are to become part of the correctional programs environment. These are: how to identify good quality mobile applications that will yield genuine benefits for practitioners and service users; how to adapt forensic treatment approaches to work effectively in a mobile application environment, and how to make mobile applications available to forensic clients and motivate people to use them. Until these challenges are addressed the potential value of mobile technologies in providing greater access to forensic treatment will not be realised.
