"""Community corrections is a topic that is often overlooked, and many correctional texts focus solely on prisons and institutions. Yet, most forms of correctional supervision are completed in the community. This book fits a great need. Notably, this book illustrates the complexity of probation and parole, while describing important scientific advancements, such as evidence-based programs, treatments, practices, and policies that have improved rehabilitation and supervision. It is clear that community corrections require the interplay of multiple people, who are tasked with serving a variety of roles in diverse settings and agencies. These concepts are clearly described in this fantastic textbook!"" Zachary Hamilton, Ph.D., Professor in the School of Criminology & Criminal Justice, Associate Director of the Nebraska Center for Justice Research, University of Nebraska - Omaha ""Community Corrections: An Intersectional Approach provides a unique experience for students to understand the history of different aspects of probation, parole, and other community-based corrections. This informative book provides a list of evidence-based practices and treatments, the applications for different types of individuals involved in these settings, and an up-to-date discussion of the concerns related to delivering various services. The intersectionality framework integrates scientific research and corrections in community-based corrections in ways unavailable in current texts."" Danielle S. Rudes, Ph.D., Professor of Criminal Justice & Criminology, Sam Houston State University ""This textbook is needed because it helps students understand the world of community corrections through the lens of workers, researchers, and people who are directly impacted by the system. It looks at the operations of community corrections from various angles, including what is working and what is not working in supporting people's success after system involvement, as well as how to measure it. The key to decarceration and community well-being is to maximize community corrections' effectiveness and this book shows us how.""
