Inhaltsangabe

This book captures the experience of transitioning from prison to the community, the tensions between risk management, public protection and enabling flourishing in those that have been released from prison. It explores what is required for successful community re-entry for men with sexual convictions, examines barriers as men (re)integrate and the ways in which men can be assisted with desistance. Combining empirical chapters, theoretical reviews, service-user voices and a consideration of the latest approach to community reintegration, this book will be relevant to psychologists, criminologists, social workers, practitioners and students. It highlights  experiences of transition from prison to the community, the barriers and challenges to (re)integration, but also how we can move forward, how we can help men live meaningful pro-social lives and in doing so fulfil the goal of reducing sexual (re) victimisation.
