Please Agree or Disagree to the statement below using specific samples for four sources. One of the sources must be Probation, Parole and Community Corrections, by Champion ( 6th Edition ) , Chapters 3 and 6.

Of course in any community the last thing anyone wants is the presence of “jailbirds”. Sometimes the probationers and parolees take on their roles of criminals and do not let go, other times they try to rejoin society. This type of housing and reform program would be for these types of people, the types that want to better themselves.

Objections that are expected to be raised are the fact that the there will be probationers and parolees in the heart of the community, which causes people to be uneasy. Another objection from the community is going to be cost. Who will be paying for the facility and programs, as well as the payment of the treatments and treatment suppliers? What will be the rules and regulations for the probationers and parolees? What will the zoning rules be like for the facility? Will there be curfews and loitering rules?

Addressing these questions will be an on going task. Some of the basic questions will be easily answered, such as curfews for the probationers, zero tolerance policies for illegal activity, and financially the facility can be funded through federal grants, and tax credits. The maintenance and upkeep of the facility can be accomplished through labor by the probationers as part of their treatment.

There are precautions that can be put into place such as the curfews and the maintenance, so the facility will continue to blend into the community ( no overgrown grass, graphite or broken windows ) Programs such as home confinement , shock treatment and boot camps can be the punishment so to speak for the probationers and parolees who violate the rules of the new community facility. Shock treatment and boot camps can be much more extreme than the facility will be, by restricting and monitoring the movements of the probationers and parolees.

Why does the press release use certain phrases and terms?

For this assignment, you will summarize the NAACP press release (pages 189-190 in A&B). Then you will write a letter to the editor in response to the press release. It is not necessary to respond to every point in the entire press release—and probably not possible. You may respond to only one point if you wish.

NOTE: Since this is a personal response, you may use “I” in your writing.

QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT ASK YOURSELF:

•Why does the press release use numbers in the way it does?
•Why does the press release use certain phrases and terms?
This assignment has two parts: a summary of the article and a strong response. To get full credit for this assignment, you must do three things:

1. Summarize the press release in 150-175 words. Be sure you present the thesis and the major supporting points.

2. Write a response to the press release in 200-250 words. In your response, you may agree with one or two points, but you must also show how you “resist” the text by questioning it, or arguing with it or refuting it. It may be helpful to think of your response as a reaction to how the writer was trying to influence your thinking. Pay attention to the words used to name and describe, the details included, and any comparisons made. (The letter-to-the-editor format assumes readers have read the article, so you do not need to summarize it in the letter.)

3. Correctly use attributive tags in your response to indicate which ideas came from the press release and which are your own.
