Social Rehabilitation: Theory and Practice (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781632408884)

Social rehabilitation can refer to the provision and facilitation of support to people experiencing trauma or disabilities, therapies for children with special needs, developmental disorders and adaptation issues, recovery for drug addicts and alcoholics, and corrective actions for felons including juveniles for their eventual reintroduction into society. Social rehabilitation builds on various studies such as correctional psychology, which applies psychology in correctional settings such as jails and prisons, to ensure standards of care for offenders and mentally ill individuals. Alternatives to imprisonment of offenders can be adopted such as community service, guidance and counsel, and probation. Local support groups, counseling, dedicated care centers and behavioral therapies can be instrumental in providing care to individuals with addiction to psychoactive substances. A nation's government can undertake various welfare services for people with such special needs and make structural reforms in the judicial and administrative policies for their proper inclusion in the society. This book is a compilation of chapters that discuss the most vital concepts and emerging trends in the field of social rehabilitation. The topics included herein are of utmost significance and bound to provide incredible insights to readers. The extensive content of this book will provide the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
