We published a paper on family contact and recidivism within the
context of a residential treatment facility for juvenile offenders. It might
be useful. The citation is listed below. If you are unable to download the
paper I would be happy to send you a copy. Joe Ryan, J. P., & Yang, H. (2005). Family
Contact and Recidivism: A Longitudinal Study of Adjudicated Delinquents in
Residential Care. Social Work Research, 29, 31-39. Joseph P. Ryan, Ph.D. Children and 217-244-5235 -----Original Message----- Someone kindly asked me for further explanation on what type of
recidivism I'm looking for - my apologies as I was too much in my own head to realize
this wouldn't be readily recognized by everyone else : ) The kind I'm looking for is prison recidivism. We're looking to start
up some fathering programs within prisons and are under the impression that
there is some research that points to the fact that prisoners who have strong
family connections are less likely to go back to prison. If we can make the
case that our program will help build/strengthen these family connections, we're
hoping that might open some doors for us. Thanks again for any references, links, etc. Quoting lfriedman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: > I am wondering if anyone can help me identify research that looks
