Description

The purpose of this research is to determine whether the Safe Streets Restored Program is beneficial to the County Community Corrections Agency, as well as beneficial to the offenders enrolled. Safe Streets Restored is a program developed for repeat DWI offenders as an alternative to jail. The research involved determining which of the repeat DWI offenders were sentenced to the Safe Streets Program and from there, which of those offenders have been convicted of other drinking convictions since being placed in the Safe Street Program. The research was conducted using quantitative research methods that will satisfy the measures of evidence based practice.
