Overview
Given rapid new changes in the training of social workers and probation officers, Working with Offenders examines the knowledge, skills, and competencies required for those who work with offenders. This practical volume is designed to look at areas of central importance to the evolving roles of practitioners, while at the same time offering a critical appraisal of policies and requirements that guide these roles and tasks. The contributors examine the issues that inform practice, the contexts in which working with offenders takes place, and the outcomes of good practice. Written in an accessible style by experienced academics and professionals, Working with Offenders will enable students and professionals in social work and criminal justice to critically evaluate knowledge in relation to practice.
