March 13, 2006: Probation Blog Wants Your Views

The Probation Journal is publishing a Special Edition in December 2006, marking the centenary of the Probation Service in England in Wales, on 'The Future of Crime and Rehabilitation'.

There have been many significant change over the last 100 years. Some suggest the Probation Service itself is now under threat; if not the organisation, then the values and ethos of rehabilitative work with offenders are under threat. The Probation Service is moving away from advise, assist & befriend to punish, monitor & manage risk. The nature and context of criminal justice work is also changing.

To explore such issues the Probation Journal has set up a Blog to encourage open debate and exploration from those concerned with UK criminal justice, and especially those closely connected with the probation service. Practitioners' perspectives are particularly sought. An edited version of this Blog debate will be published in the December Special Edition. You are encouraged to visit the Blog and add your comments.
