Abstract

This Best Practices Tool-Kit aims to systematically identify empirical evidence regarding strategies, programs and practices geared towards involving offenders’ families during incarceration and reentry. It highlights practices and program strategies that are proven, promising or exemplary best practices and provides references for more extensive reading. The objective of this tool kit is to provide information that will better inform policymakers, practitioners and researchers on maintaining and strengthening appropriate family relationships during incarceration and community reintegration.
