corrections week 4 discussion

The unique needs of each individual offender means that a “one size  fits all” approach to sanctions does not work for offenders. As a  result, a range of punishments has been developed to address the various  needs of different offenders.

In your initial response, discuss the role of intermediate sanctions as  a punishment alternative within corrections. Begin your response by  defining the concept of intermediate sanctions as it applies to  corrections. Provide specific examples of different types of  intermediate sanctions. Conclude your response by evaluating whether or  not you believe intermediate sanctions as they are currently designed  are effectively working to rehabilitate offenders.

 Initial posts must be a minimum of 500 words not counting the repeating  of the question or reference list, and incorporate material from at  least two (2) cited sources.
