Making Progress?: What progression means for people serving the longest sentences
Making Progress?: What progression means for people serving the longest sentences
This report presents the findings of a prisoner consultation carried out by PRT’s Building Futures programme. Around 100 responses were received from people in prison to four questions relating to their progression.
The report looks at what is meant by risk reduction and assessment, and progression both in terms of offending behaviour courses and the personal progression of prisoners. It also examines the relationship between risk and progression, and the lack of clarity felt by prisoners.
The report identifies missed opportunities for the progression and development of long-term prisoners but makes recommendations to improve the system.
