This week, you will take what you learned from your interview and apply it to what you have learned in this course thus far. As you do this, please define terms and phrases and explain differences as they apply.

Respond to the following questions in a 750- to 1,050-word paper. You are encouraged to use these questions as subheadings. The program you will use is Big Brothers Big Sisters

3. Is what they do more of restorative justice, diversion, counseling, incapacitation, or some other form of crime prevention/control?

4. Does this person/program focus more on crime control or due process? Why?

5. Do you see your interviewee/program as being part of the official (traditional) criminal justice system, or are they outside of it (private company)?
