Professional Misconduct against Juveniles in Correctional Treatment Settings (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores the nature of employee-on-youth misconduct, its extent, its consequences, factors that increase its occurrence, and potential solutions to the problem. A significant barrier to successful juvenile intervention is misconduct committed against juveniles by the persons employed to help them. Obviously, employee-on-youth misconduct interferes with the effective treatment of delinquent and at-risk youth, but it also harms the agency as a whole and creates a poor working environment for all employees.

This book offers a practical, theory-based approach to preventing or stopping such exploitation of vulnerable young men and women so that we can focus on effective approaches to rehabilitation, deterrence, and public safety.
