Reduce recidivism -brian time spent in residential treatment

Reference no: EM133210549

Question: Brian, a 24-year-old male, is being conditionally released by a parole board after having served seven years of a possible sixteen-year adult sentence for aggravated robbery of a convenience store clerk at knife point. He has a prior DUI arrest at the age of 16 for which he successfully completed six months of supervised probation, and a 30 day inpatient treatment program. Brian has a strong connection to his mother, but is at odds with his father who won't let Brian come home due to his behavior. Brian has not finished his GED, but has strong automotive repair skills. He has been known to have problems with controlling his impulses, severe mood swings, and other substance abuse (e.g., abusing prescription pain pills).

Given this scenario, is this statement true or false:

Brian's time spent in a residential treatment program is evidence that residential treatment programs more broadly do not work to reduce recidivism.
