Introduction The law enforcement and criminal justice system of the United States embraces community corrections. It is because it helps incarcerated individu-
als get back to the community. The main objective of creating these community corrections is to act as an alternative to imprisonment to those individuals that are in
jail but has shown positive behaviors and have reformed. As this approach occurs mainly outside the prison setting, the authorities enforce strict measures that
restrict the ex-convicts from reoffending and oversee the correctional process. More so, the departments of probation, do supervisions and follow-ups to address the
need of the undergoing community program. Usually, court systems make decisions and also enforces sanctions on the report written by parole officers on if the of-
fenders should be allowed to return to the community. An offender will have completed the process successfully if they show signs of mental stability and
changes in behaviors. This paper will review and analyze the case of Robert, who was incarcerated for drug abuse and armed robbery, describing why commu-

Introduction The law enforcement and criminal justice system
of the United States embraces community corrections. It is
because it helps incarcerated individu-
als get back to the community. The main objective of creating
these community corrections is to act as an alternative to
imprisonment to those individuals that are in
jail but has shown positive behaviors and have reformed. As
this approach occurs mainly outside the prison setting, the
authorities enforce strict measures that
restrict the ex-convicts from reoffending and oversee the
correctional process. More so, the departments of probation, do
supervisions and follow-ups to address the
need of the undergoing community program. Usually, court
4. systems make decisions and also enforces sanctions on the
report written by parole officers on if the of-
fenders should be allowed to return to the community. An
offender will have completed the process successfully if they
show signs of mental stability and
changes in behaviors. This paper will review and analyze the
case of Robert, who was incarcerated for drug abuse and armed
robbery, describing why commu-
nity correctional assessment is important for him. Additionally,
we will determine the needs of this person and describe the
evidence-based practices that will enable
him to re-enter society. “Analyzing the case of Robert” Robert
was convicted of drug abuse and armed robbery, and he is about
to complete his term in jail.
He is twenty-five years old, and he has a criminal history and
various past arrests associated with drug possession and
robbery. For him being arrested four times and
incarcerated five times, it is hard to know if he would get back
into society successfully as a fully reformed person. However,

positive change in behaviors by refraining from alcohol and
drugs. Additionally, Robert has struggled with bipolar disorder
in the past and thus he attends regular
counseling sessions. More so, Robert underwent medications,
and he has not shown any signs of repeating past behaviors.
Therefore, community correction will
greatly help Robert during the period of transition. “Why
community correctional assessment is necessary for Robert” It
is important to do community correc-
tional assessment in Robert’s case to ascertain if his claims of
6. behavioral progress, abstinence from the use of heroin, and
mental issues are true. It is a compli-
cated and crucial process that involves investigations of needs
and comprehensive risk and data collection. The facility will
assist these tasks by supervising and moni-
toring the offender to show the risk of recidivism. In addition, it
helps to categorize the offender on the basis of the level of risk,
which is high, moderate, and low.
(Anderson, 2019) With the fact that Robert is serving a fifth
term in jail for various offenses, community correction
assessment is very important as it will prove
beyond reasonable doubt that he is not going to continue with
criminal activities. In addition, correction assessment assists in
changing the lives of offenders before
they get back into the community, and minimize criminal
offenses, and help to transforming the community. Therefore, in
Robert’s case, this procedure is
mandatory as it will help assess his behaviors and make a
decision whether he should be granted parole, incarcerated, or
whether he should serve the remaining
term under probation. It is also significant in the collection of
data and analyzing of the offender’s behaviors outside the
prison. It assists in the prediction of the
offender’s behaviors in the social environment. (Anderson,
2019) Robert says that he has abstained from alcohol and drug
use and promise to refrain from substance
abuse during his transition period. It is hard to establish this,
taking into account the nature of prison security. Therefore, he
may be giving an excuse to get another
corrections facility other than prison and assessment is very
important to know and determine his attitudes, mental issues, or
7. even behavioral change. (Anderson,
2019
Use of community correctional assessment to determine
Robert’s needs Correction assessment, which is done by the
help of psychiatric, tools for abuse screening,
and help of other professionals has an important role in
assessing the risk level of the offender and treatment methods
that should be applied. More so, it will help in
making decisions for those who should undergo community
corrections. (Anderson, 2019) From the assessment, he requires
support from the community and
his family and psychological needs such as therapy and
counseling. Robert suffered from bipolar disorder which could
be the result of drug abuse and stress.
He also needs medication, to treat his depressive issues which
are due to recidivism. He also requires compassion and support
from the community. That is,
they allow him to live as obedient person after the transition.

“Evidence-based practices” Evidence-based practices are
achieved through scientific research in the criminal justice
system. They are applicable or rather help in
the reduction of recidivism. In addition, the choice of evidence -
based practices relies on the needs and risks of the offender.
Therefore, given this
individual’s recidivism risk level and criminal history, the
community correction suggested evidence-based practices are
rehabilitation and stress management.
Rehabilitation prevents the person from using alcohol, drugs,
and all illegal substances. Many scientists recommend the
rehabilitation approach as it produces the de-
sired results. For example, individuals found to be addicted and
placed in a rehabilitation center, are mostly found to recover
from the addiction. Additionally, stress
management is recommended because it will help in reducing
depressive episodes and manic disorders. It will assist him in
forgetting his previous ordeal before re-
entering society. (Mitchell et al., 2016, p. 132) Conclusion This
paper has analyzed the case of Robert. It has established or
discussed the significance of commu-
nity correctional assessment, and the risk factors of recidivism.
Looking at Robert’s history, he is supposed to undergo the
correctional assessment to know his
needs and establish the possible and necessary solutions to his
problems. And therefore, the solutions suggested are scientific-
based and offer the best outcomes.
