Developments in Social Work with Offenders explains the organisational and legislative changes that have occurred in social work and probation across the UK in recent years, and outlines the accumulating body of knowledge about what constitutes effective practice in the assessment, supervision and management of offenders in the community. The book covers three different aspects of working with offenders: developments in policy; assessment, supervision and intervention; and issues and needs. The contributors, who are experts in the field, discuss topics such as community 'punishment', case management, accreditation and resettlement. The continuing concern with promoting evidence-based solutions to crime is addressed, and this book will assist professionals working with offenders with making focused interventions supported by research. This book is essential reading for students of social work, probation and criminology, probation officers and social workers. Book jacket.
