rehab vs incarceration

The title of my research project for this course is rehabilitation versus incarceration. The main issue to be examined is to determine if incarceration or rehabilitation is more effective for offenders. We can punish people for the crimes committed to get the drugs, but that's not the solution for treating the mental illness associated with the offenses. Rehabilitation is an essential goal of the criminal justice system. This goal rests on the assumption that individuals can be treated and can return to society crime free.

The Research Paper must be a minimum of 3500 words in length, but must not exceed 6,000 words. The paper requires a minimum of 10 different references. It will be typewritten, double spaced-standard margins, and follow the APA style format. The paper will be submitted through the Dropbox, which is linked to Turnitin. No previously submitted papers, articles, reports or projects, in whole or part, to any university or college will be accepted. It is expected that this will be the student’s original work. No more than 15% of your entire document can be quoted. The research paper is comprised of three parts: the topic selection, the annotated outline, and the final paper. Combined, these three parts make up 25% of the overall grade for this course.
