C-UNIT: Search For Community In Prison

MAY CONTAIN MARKUP

BY ELLIOT STUDT, SHELDON L. MESSINGER And THOMAS P. WILSON

One of the most detailed reports ever made on an effort to establish a therapeutic community within a California prison. This work describes how the program was launched, gives a number of examples of its operation, and outlines the new problems and prospects created for inmates, staff, and the broader prison administration by this attempt to redefine the roles within the prison.
