Overview

WHEN CHALLENGING PRECONCEPTIONS OF PUNISHMENT AND PRISONS, CRIMINAL JUSTICE INFORM WOULD BE MORE PERTINENT THAN REFORM. Criminal justice reform is inevitable; yet the public remains stoic, even complacent. It has been deformed and contorted through political fearmongering. This unjustly targets and exploits justice-impacted persons by predisposing them to heinous political agendas and profitable commercial schemes. True reform requires no procrastination. We must acknowledge that community preemptive programs are vital we should not incarcerate out of mere retaliatory emotional responses or pure detestation. This obligates us to put a face (not a façade) on Criminal Justice Reform to ensure the optimum efficacy of incarceration. Generating this expectation of the prison system is critical and must be methodical. Hence, we should question the purpose of prisons and consider, instead, prisons with a purpose. My work in Denmark was contentious. Several systems worldwide seem to shroud the solutions they claim to provide, thus forfeiting regeneration. Drawing on my extensive experience with marginalized groups in prison work, I have identified proactive solutions that are both effective and transformative. We must elevate the ""expectation effect"" of reform, transforming it from a fear-driven force into a tool that enhances lives and justice globally. The current ramifications abandon the original intent of seeking justice for victims and their families. I acknowledge that there are people who commit serious crimes, but it is also true that elevated criminal justice reform practices result in altered behaviors, mindsets, and humane justice outcomes, thereby elevating society from the bottom up.
