Risk and Needs Assessment in the Federal Prison System
Risk and Needs Assessment in the Federal Prison System Nathan James Analyst in Crime Policy July 10, 2018. Congressional Research Service 7-5700. R44087. Risk and Needs Assessment in the Federal Prison System Summary The number of people incarcerated in Federal prisons increased dramatically over the past three decades. While the number of inmates in the Federal Prison System has decreased since FY2013, the Federal Prison population remains substantially larger than it was three decades ago. Concerns about both the economic and social consequences of the country's reliance on incarceration have led to calls for reforms to the nation's criminal justice System , including improving the Federal Prison System 's ability to rehabilitate incarcerated offenders by better assessing their risk for recidivism and addressing their criminogenic Needs .
instruments can, with a moderate level of accuracy, predict who is at risk for violent recidivism. It also suggests that of the most commonly used risk assessments none distinguishes itself from the others when it comes to predictive validity. The Risk-Needs-Responsivity (RNR) model has become the dominant paradigm in risk and needs assessment.
