For more course tutorials visit
www.newtonhelp.com
Risk reassessment and individual offender needs should be assessed
periodically upon offender reentry, as demonstrated in this assignment,
to address risks before they lead the individual to reoffend.
Review the following scenario:
The client is a 32-year-old male who was released from incarceration 6
months ago. The client had previously been incarcerated for 2 years for
two felony drug offenses due to possession and distribution of
methamphetamine. He received treatment while incarcerated, but he
relapsed and used methamphetamine 2 months after he was released.
The client is positive for Hepatitis C, which he contracted while he was
in prison. He was receiving medication for his condition until last month
when he did not supply a required document to the Medicaid office on
time. As a result, he lost his medical coverage. The client has been
married for 5 years, and he has a 3-year-old child. The client was
diagnosed with bipolar disorder at age 28. The client has exhibited
emotional outbursts and episodes of perpetrating domestic violence with
his wife since his release from incarceration. The client obtained his
GED at age 25, but he never attended college. The client also had a
14. learning disorder of dyslexia during his adolescent years. He has
minimal job skills, as he only worked at one job as a dishwasher for 2
months during his adult life. He primarily obtained income from selling
drugs prior to incarceration. The client is currently seeking employment,
but he is experiencing difficulty obtaining employment due to his prior
criminal conviction.

CPSS 300 Week 5 Termination of Parole
For more course tutorials visit
www.newtonhelp.com
Many factors are considered when termination of parole is determined.
When an offender is discharged from prison and reenters the
community, he or she remains on federal parole for a specified period of
time. During the reentry process, many types of supports are
incorporated into the reentry plan along with risk assessments, to
measure the level and predictors of the offender reoffending again. The
most important step after reentry occurs is determining an appropriate
time to release the offender completely from judicial supervision.
Review the policy regarding the termination of federal parole by the
U.S. Department of Justice.
16. Create a 5-slide presentation that responds to the following:
• Provide an introduction to the issue, including an explanation of the
role of mentorship (1 slide)

period? (1 slide)

• Is it fair to require a parole to enter a halfway house upon reentering
society? Provide insights into your response. (1 slide)
