Extractions: I n addition to developing the technology of Dianetics and Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard also addressed and developed methods to resolve some of society's most devastating problems. These methods are broadly applied in the secular realm at a grass roots level. The Association for Better Living and Education (ABLE) was established in Los Angeles in 1988 to provide direction and programs for these activities, while lending support through fundraising activities. The technologies utilized by ABLE have developed into four general social betterment programs, each addressing a specific area of current social concern: Applied Scholastics, an educational program; Narconon, a drug rehabilitation program; Criminon, a criminal rehabilitation program; and a program for improving public morality based on a nonreligious moral code called "The Way to Happiness." The Church and its parishioners financially support ABLE and its social betterment groups. And while ABLE additionally raises funds through donations and grants from non-Scientology related entities, ABLE and its related organizations do not in turn contribute to the financial support of any Church of Scientology.

If all those in some way involved in the problem tried to . . . develop this line of thought, perhaps humanity as a whole could take a great step forward in creating a more serene and peaceful society.

Extractions: The Psychiatric Patient Advocate Office (the "PPAO"), a quasi-independent programme of the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care, has been advocating for the strengthening of the rights of persons with serious mental illness since 1983. The PPAO is arms-length of the Ministry and, as such, our views do not necessarily represent those of the Ministry. With field offices located in the current and former provincial psychiatric facilities, the PPAO has a unique perspective on the effects of Criminal Code (the "Code") provisions and the resulting dispositions within Ontario's mental health system. Forensic patients represent a significant portion of our client-base. We are involved in both individual and systemic advocacy as well as public education. We participate in inquests, work with clients and their counsel in matters involving the Ontario Review Board and facilitate client-centred policies and best practices within hospitals. We are pleased to provide this submission for your consideration as you evaluate the 1991 amendments to the Code The submission, below, is a preliminary outline of the PPAO's concerns. We strongly support full, open, public consultations on the 1991 amendments prior to closing the issue. As yet, the federal consultation has not been widely circulated or publicized; the issue note asks very technical questions about the law. Full consultation requires all stakeholders, including persons subject to disposition orders, are made aware of the discussion and are given the opportunity to provide submissions of issues of importance to them. We look forward to presenting more detailed comments at that time.

Extractions: Youth Criminal Justice Act The Government of Canada is working to establish a renewed youth justice system - one that commands respect, fosters values such as accountability and responsibility and makes it clear that criminal behaviour will lead to meaningful consequences. A renewed youth justice system must also make a distinction between violent and non-violent crime and ensure that youth face consequences that reflect the seriousness of their offence. Finally, it must make every effort possible to prevent youth crime and to support youth, if they do become involved in crime, to turn their lives around. Establishing a youth justice system that promotes accountability and is more effective and reflective of current social values is key to regaining public confidence. These are the basic principles on which the Government of Canada has based its strategy for the renewal of youth justice. The strategy focuses on three key areas that work together to protect the public: preventing youth crime; ensuring there are meaningful consequences that encourage accountability for offences committed by youth; and improving rehabilitation and reintegration for youth who will return to the community. Since the release of the Youth Justice Strategy in May, 1998, the Government of Canada has consulted widely with Canadians on specific proposals for a new youth justice system. These included a series of round-table discussions with experts across Canada, as well as consultations with the provinces, victims, police, the legal community, municipal representatives, community organizations and many others. These discussions have helped in developing a new law, the

The new law replaces the Young Offenders Act (YOA) , and is in force as of April 1, 2003, following a period of preparation for its implementation. The YCJA builds on the strengths of the YOA and introduces significant reforms that address its weaknesses. The YCJA provides the legislative framework for a fairer and more effective youth justice system. The introduction of the bill followed an extensive period of review and consultation, much of which is reflected in the following reports: In March of 1999, Bill C-68, the first version of the

Subscribe Unsubscribe Criminal Justice Program Focus Areas Guidelines Grantee List The Open Society Institute established an office in Baltimore with the aim of improving the lives of people existing on the margins of the city, who have inadequate access to its resources. OSI-Baltimore seeks to understand the interdependence of the challenges facing the city and to respond with integrated grantmaking programs that will help ensure that marginalized city residents have the services and opportunities they need to participate fully in community life. The goal of the Criminal Justice Program at OSI-Baltimore is to increase public safety and to reduce incarceration and recidivism by encouraging support for effective and humane responses to criminal behavior and victimization. The Program seeks to infuse public debate on crime with a broader discussion of the causes of incarceration and of the strategies that can effectively reduce crime and recidivism. The Criminal Justice Program believes that these initiatives ultimately will help create a more open society in which all citizens have an opportunity to participate and fewer citizens live in a shadow society behind bars. The Program is eager to create partnerships with public and private entities in an effort to bring about effective reforms that will benefit our society at large.

A sign in Jeanne Woodford 's office reminds her of this advice every day. Once uttered by anthropologist Margaret Mead , these words reflect the newly appointed corrections director's faith the nearly 50,000 people who work for the California Department of Corrections and her commitment to the department itself. When Woodford stepped into her new position in February, she inherited a department that had been bogged down by fiscal issues and scarred by scandals, mostly involving the state correctional officers union and "code of silence" among CDC officers during investigations into incidents at correctional facilities. The department's reputation had been tarnished and its credibility weakened. ..More Attention Employers

Extractions: The policies, positions and observations developed within this paper will serve as a catalyst for further discussion with Aboriginal peoples, non-governmental organizations, the judiciary, law enforcement and correctional agencies, and governmental departments, at the federal, provincial, and territorial levels. The Report examines the historical legacy of assimilation. Aboriginal people in Canada today are facing many problems that can be traced back to the impact of European assimilation. The European capitalist system differed greatly from the customs of Aboriginal people and, when imposed upon them, altered their way of life economically, politically, and socially. The collapse of the fur trade further changed the lifestyle of the Aboriginal people by increasing their dependence on European economies. Loss of the traditional Aboriginal way of life went beyond simple economic factors. Health problems, the pressures of foreign cultures and religions, and the introduction of new technologies also led to the demise of Aboriginal habitat and lifestyle. In addition, residential schools, which prohibited the use of First Nations languages and observance of Aboriginal culture and tradition, imposed neglect, abuse and mistreatment upon many Aboriginal children. These historical factors, as well as present socio-economic conditions, have contributed greatly to disproportionate levels of Aboriginal incarceration, poverty, unemployment, alcohol abuse, and domestic violence, and to the absence of stable business infrastructures. Indeed, the behaviour of most Aboriginal offenders frequently reflect social rather than criminal problems.

Extractions: Differential Treatment of African American Youth Will Drakeford and Lili Frank Garfinkel This article examines racial factors within the juvenile justice and mental health systems that contribute to the overrepresentation of African American men and boys in correctional facilities. The authors also explore recent efforts by lawmakers and academic institutions to address these inequalities. Racial Bias and the Juvenile Justice System Over the last 4 decades, racial inequalities among African American and other young men in juvenile detention centers have been well documented. The factors associated with overrepresentation of youth in corrections are complex. Evidence suggests that school failure, poorly developed social skills, and inadequate school and community supports are also associated with this phenomenon. The overrepresentation of minorities is evident in the adjudication process, including arrests, detention, prosecution, and commitment to detention. Indeed, the overrepresentation of youth of color in juvenile confinement continues to soar in direct proportion to the fears of violence and crime that grip the minds of those dominant culture U.S. citizens who are least likely to be its victims (Isaacs-Shockley, 1994). While the debate over differential treatment within the juvenile justice system lingers, incarceration rates among African American youth continue to rise. Research has shown that racial disparities within the juvenile justice system contribute to the overrepresentation of African American youth confined in juvenile detention centers. These issues are also prevalent as a result of biases that exist in mental health agencies.

Extractions: Sam Houston's criminal justice program was the dream of two visionary men, George J. Beto, Director of the Texas Department of Corrections, and Arleigh B. Templeton, President of Sam Houston State College. Their goal was to establish a program of excellence in justice education, utilizing the prison system as a laboratory for research, much as a teaching hospital serves this function in medical education. Responsive to their idea, the Texas Legislature enacted House Resolution 469, which directed the College and the Texas Department of Corrections to create a cooperative program with four objectives: Establishment of an educational program for students seeking careers in law enforcement, courts and corrections; Development of a continuing education program for professionals working in the field; Conduct of research on the causes of crime and the treatment of offenders; and Provision of technical assistance to criminal justice agencies in Texas. Over the next decade, Beto and Templeton's dream would become the largest and most diversified criminal justice program in the English-speaking world.
