Correctional_Populations.doc Correctional Populations CJS/255 Correctional Populations The correctional population of any prison in America today is a mixture of special needs inmates. These are the inmates that the law forgot or didnt represent to their fullest capability. The law is imperfect, but it has been taken to new levels with the mentally ill, and the drug addicted just to get them out of sight and behind bars. So, society doesnt have to see or deal with them anymore and into an already overburdened correctional system that cant handled the ones already sentenced to life, that are becoming the elderly on their watch. Classification Process When an inmate enters the prison system there needs to be a system in place to determine what the level of security supervision the inmate will require. The need for staff supervision that the institution will be able to provide the inmate and what the inmates programming needs may be. This sort of classification system begins when the inmate is first sentenced and is used in the continuation of the process at the prison when the team at the prison begins its evaluation headed by the unit manager. There a case manager, correctional counselor, educational advisor, and a psychology services advisor finish the evaluation (Hanser, 2020). This correlation of team members is responsible for helping to contribute to an inmates law-abiding lifestyle. It is also important to remember that the people inside the facility should be the ones that advance successfu. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . .. .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . .
