Your essay should be 2-5 pages, double-spaced, written in 12-point font.
To complete this assignment, do the following:
Read the webpage text and watch the video (1.5 hours) on this website
There are some gaps where people participating in the original Zoom call were placed into breakout rooms. You can fast-forward through these “breaks.” (Which makes the real-time of the video shorter than the 1.5 hour timestamp.)
You’re welcome to review the slideshows at the bottom of the page (“Destigmatizing Corrections: Language Matters,” “Restrictive Housing.”), but they’re not required reading for this assignment.
Watch this video, starting at 2:24.
Then, respond to the following questions:
What is the “Maine Model of Corrections?”
What are the important principles in the “Maine Model?”
What are some concrete differences between the current “Maine Model” and the previous environment in the Maine DOC?
Specific practices?
Specific programs?
Culture?
Correctional ideology?
What data are presented that reflect the efficacy of these changes?
How do both incarcerated people (“residents”) and correctional staff talk about the “Maine Model?”
To what extent do you think principles from this “Maine Model” are likely to be implemented in county jail facilities? Why?
Based on what you learned about the “Maine Model,” what are you expecting to see during your site visit in terms of:
Language used by correctional employees?
Correctional ideology at the facility? (rehabilitation, incapacitation, etc.)
Programming?
Practices?
Culture?
Other things?
How does the “Maine Model” sound similar to/different from things we’ve discussed thus far in class?
What is your personal reaction to/reflection on the “Maine Model?”
