Ready to
tackle offender recidivism rates in your jurisdiction while
slashing incarceration costs? Then join us this
October 27-31 for the comprehensive road-map!
Previous participants have asked us for tools to help them adapt the
strategy and tactics to their unique environments. And
that is exactly what this program offers.
The program is developed into 2 sections to teach key
concepts while addressing the
strategic system changes to improve re-entry, reform and
rehabilitation success, alternatives to incarceration,
reduced recidivism and future victimization and enhance
public safety.
It provides a comprehensive roadmap
for leadership serious about getting results in the "fight"
against rising incarceration and recidivism costs.
Participants will not only
learn key strategy and tactics, but participate in key
implementation planning exercises. At the end of the course,
attendees will have created a comprehensive offender re-entry
implementation plan customized to their needs to drastically cut
prisoner costs and enhance public safety. 
Testimonial:
Joyfields' course is "... one
of the best “hands on” educational programs I have ever attended,
including many of the Masters level courses I attended in graduate
school. I will be, and have already, STRONGLY
recommended this course for our County, DOC.... This was truly
worthwhile and should be a mandatory course for Correctional Leaders
everywhere." LK
Bring your team and get to
it!

What people have said about
Joyfields' programs
-
"Your company provided an
incredible opportunity for professional development and was laser
focused around what other facilities are doing regarding reentry and
reintegration based on statistical evidence based practices. I
personally utilized this workshop from a vendor perspective to
ensure the opportunities our company is pursuing in reentry and
reform is in line with Best Practices and working towards Evidence
Based Practices in the Correctional Industry. I was truly amazed by
the detail and level of information your course provided. As a
matter of fact, I would say that this was one of the best “hands on”
educational programs I have ever attended, including many of the
Masters level courses I attended in graduate school. I will be, and
have already, STRONGLY recommended this course for our
County, DOC, and international correctional customers and would even
recommend this to other vendors of the corrections industry
interested in providing reentry or rehabilitation services.
This was truly worthwhile and should be a mandatory course for
Correctional Leaders everywhere." LK, Securus Technologies

deficiencies in the program. It was very well organized, and

offered." - JH, Multnomah County
