A classroom environment provides many opportunities to influence behavior,
cognitive behavior, learning, and growth. The focused, intentional way
students interact in class with high school faculty and other students can be
extended to interactions outside class with work supervisors and correctional
staff. The residential, school, and work environments together will support
and enhance social and life skills development of offenders.
This course aims to:
• Support successful community reintegration
• Improve employability
• Improve job retention
• Enhance by offender choice a reconnection to society
• Build a sense of empowerment through the application of new skills
• Improve collaboration both in the facility and out in the community
