Abstract:
This study proposes the approach of context-dependent data envelopment analysis (DEA) to measure operating performance in halfway houses to enable suitable adjustments at the current economic scale. The proposed approach can be used to discriminate the performance of efficient halfway houses and provide more accurate DEA results related to the performance of all halfway houses in a region or a country. The relative attractiveness and progress were also evaluated, and individual halfway houses’ competitive advantage and potential competitors could be determined. A case study of 38 halfway houses in Taiwan was investigated by our proposed approach. Findings suggest that fifteen halfway houses belong to the medium level, which can be classified into a quadrant by examining both their attractiveness score and progress score. The results can be used to allocate community resources to improve the operational directions and develop incentives for halfway houses with attractive and progressive values, which can reduce the institutionalization and waste of medical resources caused by the long-term hospitalization of patients with mental illnesses. Our proposed approach can also provide references for operators and policy makers to improve the management, accreditation, and resource allocation of institutions.

Abstract:
Halfway houses are a form of community supervision and correctional programming that have become a staple intervention in recent years. Despite the ingrained belief in their benefits with respect to successful reintegration, this assumption may not be justified based on the existing literature. The current study provides a systematic review and meta-analysis of nine studies examining the effects of halfway houses on recidivism. Overall, the findings suggest that halfway houses are an effective correctional strategy for successful reentry (log odds ratio [LOR] = 0.236, z = 9.27, p < .001). Further work is needed to determine best practices for programming and meeting the needs of different participants.

Abstract:
Presently halfway houses are not being fully utilized; this may be partly due to the unclear guidelines regarding residential placement. The reported research tested the validity of a classification instrument, the Level of Supervision Inventory (LSI), with incarcerated offenders placed into halfway houses. The LSI yielded impressive predictions of both inprogram and postprogram recidivism, it demonstrated acceptable internal reliability, and the instrument showed convergent validity. Furthermore, the LSI provided not only an assessment of risk but it also identified the needs of offenders that can be used to select treatment goals and evaluate intervention programs.

Abstract:
Expressed emotion (EE) toward patients with schizophrenia is typically reported to be lower in psychiatric halfway houses than in families. This is the first study directly comparing EE between these settings and investigating the pathways mediating EE differences. We included 40 inpatients in halfway houses and 40 outpatients living with their families and recorded 22 psychiatric nurses’ and 56 parents’ EE, respectively, through Five Minutes Speech Samples. Each inpatient was rated by 2–5 nurses and each outpatient by 1–2 parents. As EE ratings had a multilevel structure, generalized linear mixed models were fitted, adjusting for patient-related confounders and caregiver demographics. Mediatory effects were investigated in multilevel structural equation models. Outpatients were younger, less chronic, and better educated, with higher negative symptoms and perceived criticism than inpatients. Nurses were younger and better educated than parents. Before adjustment, EE rates were equally high across settings. After adjusting for patient-related confounders, emotional overinvolvement was significantly higher in parents. However, after also adjusting for caregiver demographics, only criticism was significantly higher in nurses. Patients’ age, negative symptoms, and perceived criticism and caregivers’ age and sex significantly mediated EE group differences. Our findings highlight pathways underlying EE differences between halfway houses and families and underscore the importance of staff and family psychoeducation.

Abstract:
The decrease over the past three decades in institutional care for people with mental illness has not been matched by the adequate development of specialized housing in the community. Broadly speaking, two major models of housing have emerged in the past 30 years: custodial and alternative. Large custodial settings, including boarding houses, nursing homes and special care homes, are typically not associated with residents' satisfaction or a positive outcome. Alternative housing refers to a range of models, including halfway houses, group homes, co-ops and supported housing. It is associated with better residents' outcomes. This paper briefly compares the two models and examines key issues in alternative housing and its development in Canada.

Abstract:
IntroductionIn Taiwan, residents of mental health halfway houses (MHHH) receive psychiatric rehabilitation services, aiming for independent living and community integration. Research is yet to investigate how MHHH may effectively assist residents’ discharge in this cultural context.ObjectivesTo examine the processes of assessment, preparation, assistance, and appraisal of discharge from MHHH staff’s perspectives.MethodsSemi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 11 halfway house staff members. Verbatim transcripts were analyzed with dimensional analysis procedures of the grounded theory methodology.ResultsSuccessful discharge is a personalized process with integrated approaches addressing three essential factors: (a) regular community involvement, (b) the residents’ capacity to work, and (c) the family’s acceptance and support. Staff supported individual residents’ community involvement by attending to residents’ personal interests, resource availability, financial concerns, and transportation. Moreover, staff provided rehabilitation trainings to develop work capacity. However, residents’ motivation and functioning as well as job opportunities might affect their employment. Finally, in Taiwan, residents were rarely discharged without their family members’ consent because residents tended to co-reside with their family after discharge or rely on family support while living separately. Staff worked to engage families, which was influenced by family relationship quality, past traumatic events, financial concerns, capacity to assist the resident, and/or the resident’s ability to assist with family affairs.ConclusionsTo achieve successful discharges, MHHH staff need to assist each resident by developing an integrated plan to enhance conditions of the aforementioned factors, including strategies for different familial situations to garner family support in this cultural context.

Abstract:
Background. Halfway houses (HwH) may support community reintegration of mental health care users and can be effective in meeting occupational needs of residents. However, they are not optimally used in South Africa. Purpose. This study aimed to improve the functioning of a HwH so that it better meets occupational needs of the resident mental health care users. It draws on Doble & Santha ( 2008 ); seven occupational needs. Method. A four-phase Participatory Action Research methodology was used. We conducted thematic analysis to describe met and unmet needs within PAR phases. Findings. Occupational needs of accomplishment, renewal, pleasure and companionship were being met. However, coherence, agency and affirmation needs were not being met. An additional occupational need for interdependence, based on the African ethic of Ubuntu, was identified. Implications. HwH functioning affected residents’ experiences of health and wellbeing. Engagement in collective occupations can contribute to meeting the occupational need of interdependence.

Abstract:
In the field of social work in the Danish welfare state, establishing dialogue between clients and social workers is typically viewed as key to success. But what is a good dialogue in this context? This article destabilizes common logics and practices which impact social work within the Danish Prison and Probation Service. The article is based on ethnographic fieldwork in two halfway houses and it shows how ideals of natural and unforced dialogue permeate social work. However, at the same time the article shows how such dialogue typically follow a specific template, making staff active co-producers of inmate’s stories.

Abstract:
The Psychiatric Unit at Wexham Park Hospital has served a population of 230,000 with no entry to long-stay beds since 1972. There have been between 45 and 60 available beds for all types of mental illness except dementia. Various group homes and unstaffed halfway houses have been started, but the accumulation of more disabled patients showed the need for both a staffed group home, and rehabilitation to fit them for it. There was no separate ward or building in the hospital which could be used, and so rehabilitation had to be arranged on an acute ward. The staffed group home has a lower staff-patient ratio than a hospital hostel.

Abstract:
This study presupposes the importance of community care in an era when one-person households are increasing. The purpose of this study was to clarify the direction and possibility of the Care Assurance Housing project through the case of ‘Halfway House in Saha-gu, Busan’. Through theoretical discussion, characteristics of single-person households were summarized as ‘relationship vulnerability’. The place where they lived was ‘a space where self-direction rather than isolation’ and the local community was a ‘connection with informal support’. Results of analyzing the case of middle houses in Saha-gu by dividing them into service entry, service progress, and service result are as follows. In service entry, it was confirmed that flexible standards were applied to users with possible connection with relatively diverse excavation. In service progress, characteristics of services were centered on relationships. Relationships with various local residents were secured in service results. The possibility of independence and various resident relations was revealed. How to apply these research results to other regions is discussed. Lastly, the direction of the community care project and the need for support for various forms of community care are suggested.

<p class="Abstract">Peter G. Harnden and Lanfranco Bombelli, the architects responsible for the U.S. government's post-World War II propaganda campaigns on European soil, settled in Cadaqués in the late 1950s. This peculiar partnership of itinerant stateless people shaped some of the most remarkable examples of Cadaqués’ architecture of the last century. Works that were able to be respectful with the “old” architecture of Cadaqués without renouncing to an uninhibited modernity. The text presented here seeks to delve into the construction that acted as the seed for the rest of his work: the house that both built for themselves upon their arrival in the Spanish small town. A project that would later be the model for several houses that both architects carried out for the growing colony of foreigners that arrived in this magical corner of the peninsular periphery. The analysis is relevant given that none has been carried out in depth before. In addition, it is a unique example of balanced architecture, one of great solidity in its fundamental principles. Finally, the study will remark the vernacular characterization of the presented architecture: a construction halfway between José A. Coderch's discourse of "It’s not geniuses what we need these days" and Kenneth Frampton's “critical regionalism.”</p>

Abstract:
This paper examines the possible shape of the hospice movement in the year 2000 AD. The number of patients dying from cancer will be similar to today, and cancer will remain the most common disease referred to hospices. After reviewing the key developments during the past fifteen years, the effects of national policy and financial constraint on future developments are examined. Most advances will stem from better organization and more realistically staffed hospices and hospice care teams. This will encourage greater flexibility and imaginative development. Advances will be made in rehabilitation, halfway houses for the elderly frail, and greater involvement with mainstream medical services. The role of home care teams, hospital support teams and day care, coupled with the better use of volunteers will maintain more patients at home and reduce the bed norms to 25 per million. A statement on education and training is made.

Abstract:
Community corrections (e.g., probation, parole, halfway houses) is the largest correctional placement in the United States, yet little research assesses community corrections staff experiences with job stress and job satisfaction. The purpose of this article is to extend the literature on community corrections officers by assessing the influence of individual factors, job characteristics, and organizational variables on both job stress and job satisfaction. In general, we found that the influence of individual factors and job characteristics differed for job stress compared to job satisfaction. Similarly, the impact of organizational factors on these outcomes also differed, although this was contrary to our expectations. Finally, job stress had a negative effect on job satisfaction and organizational factors had a larger impact on both job stress and job satisfaction, compared to individual and job characteristics. Our results provide a number of possible areas for departments to focus on in order to reduce job stress and increase job satisfaction among probation/parole and residential officers.

Abstract:
Before America began creating a federally based welfare state in the 1930s, most publicly funded responses to social problems had an institutional bias. The ways in which the welfare programs initiated 50 years ago have helped to influence institutional trends, and are likely to continue doing so in the future, constitute the major focus of this analysis. Four special problem groups are assessed from a historical perspective: (1) the dependent aged and the movement from local almshouses and state insane asylums to nursing homes; (2) the mentally ill and the movement from state hospitals to a variety of local medical and nonmedical residences; (3) the developmentally disabled—formerly the mentally retarded—and the movement from state schools to private community residential facilities; and (4) the dependent/neglected and delinquent youth and the movement away from orphan asylums and training schools to group homes, treatment centers, adolescent psychiatric units, halfway houses, and outdoor camps. Recent trends and projections, as well as present and future policy issues, are assessed.

Abstract:
The year 1963 was a time of innovation and excitement in British psychiatry, thanks largely to the National Health Service (NHS), which in 1948 had taken the mental hospitals from the control of the local authorities and made them part of a national service, which meant more money and far more medical staff. Rehabilitation of chronically ill patients resulted in a proliferation of out-patient clinics, home assessments, day hospitals, and even halfway houses; doors were unlocked, and informality became the order of the day. Hospitals with enough nurses demonstrated that the whole adult psychiatric service of an area could be successfully provided without a single locked door and almost without a compulsory order in a year. Medical superintendents disappeared and therapeutic communities developed. Suicide ceased to be a crime and became a new subject of research. And, of course, it was the era of successful chemotherapy, chlorpromazine in 1954 and imipramine in 1957 being the first of many drugs used.

Abstract:
Alternative education is an alternative option for people who have limited access to education, and the implementation of alternative education has a significant contribution to achieving national education goals. Alternative education in Indonesia has various forms such as reading parks, children's centers, halfway houses, natural schools and homeschooling. Alternative education is closely related to non-formal education because non-formal education is an effort to provide education to people who are unable to get an education. One of the targets of alternative education is street children. The curriculum and learning for street children provided must be in accordance with the interests and needs of street children so that it can be an educational provision that will later lead to the independence of street children in their lives. The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze the training and course curriculum as an alternative education for street children and to find out the appropriate curriculum for street children through alternative education. The method used in data collection is a literature review and literature study from various sources.

The Immigration Act of 1990 was significantly outdated and required revision. Additional regulations that passed in the 1990-s had to be systematized. The White House and the president George W. Bush inclined to the comprehensive immigration reform that would include an amnesty for the certain part of the illegal aliens. Some lawmakers were ready to strike a deal, but than happened the 9/11 tragedy. Immigration reform was shelved and turned into a matter of national security. Immigration reform bills were taken into consideration only in conjunction with boarder security bills. Edward Kennedy was very much aware of the issue's complexity and the need for reform; he did all he could to reach a compromise with his fellow Republicans. John McCain became his closest ally in the reform. Democrats made considerable concessions, while moderate Republicans were willing to meet them halfway, but the conservatives would not let the Congress adopt a new legislation, calling any attempt at comprehensive immigration reform an amnesty for the criminals. During the 107-110 Congresses the immigration reform was thoroughly worked through from both sides, but the proposed bills rarely got to the floor and never passed both Houses. Even though the time has passed, suggestions offered and deals reached during the Bush presidency did not lose the edge and any new immigration legislation is going be based on the 2002-2008 bills.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences of individuals with mental illness who receive residential services during the process of community integration, and to propose practical measures in this field. To gain a better understanding of the context and significance of using residential services, eight participants who have utilized two or more types of such services, including halfway houses, living facilities, communal living families, and self-reliance experience housing, were selected. Data was collected through semi-structured in-depth interviews and analyzed using a continuous comparison method. The analysis resulted in the identification of 5 categories, 11 patterns, and 31 meanings: ① a vague desire for independence, ② finding a sense of daily life through practical preparation, ③ receiving empowerment from applicants, ④ enduring rewards and punishments, and ⑤ gaining confidence in independence. This study reveals that the experience of housing services for individuals with mental disabilities is a process of realizing the possibility of independence, starting from a vague desire, and driven by strong applicants, while also expanding voluntary housing options. Based on these findings, a housing service plan is proposed to support the community integration process for individuals with mental disabilities

Abstract:
Children are an investment and hope for the future of the nation, because they will be the next generation. Productive age is an important phase in human growth and development that will determine their future. However, if there is neglect in society, children will live without getting their rights and separated from the welfare they should receive. During their growth process, every child needs support and assistance from parents and the environment to achieve optimal growth. Several factors can cause neglected children including parenting styles, the education system, and financial problems. Abandoned children are often forced to beg, sing in the streets, or even engage in crime. Therefore, it is important for us to show empathy for the condition of abandoned children and give them the opportunity to be independent, so that the next generation can overcome their backwardness and acquire basic skills in personal and social aspects. One alternative to support neglected children's independence is to design halfway houses through improvement, education and art programs, thereby creating a new environment that supports them. Keywords: abandoned children; halfway house; healing; independence; skills Abstrak Anak-anak merupakan investasi dan harapan bagi masa depan bangsa, karena mereka akan menjadi generasi penerus. Masa usia produktif merupakan fase penting dalam pertumbuhan dan perkembangan manusia yang akan menentukan masa depan mereka. Namun, jika terjadi pengabaian di masyarakat, anak-anak akan hidup tanpa mendapatkan hak-hak mereka dan terpisah dari kesejahteraan yang seharusnya mereka terima. Selama proses pertumbuhan mereka, setiap anak membutuhkan dukungan dan bantuan dari orang tua dan lingkungan sekitar untuk mencapai pertumbuhan yang optimal. Beberapa faktor yang menyebabkan anak terlantar termasuk pola pengasuhan, sistem pendidikan, dan masalah keuangan. Anak-anak terlantar sering kali terpaksa melakukan tindakan meminta-minta, menyanyi di jalanan, atau bahkan terlibat dalam tindak kejahatan. Oleh karena itu, penting bagi kita untuk menunjukkan empati terhadap kondisi anak-anak terlantar ini dan memberi mereka kesempatan untuk mandiri, sehingga generasi penerus dapat mengatasi keterbelakangan dan memperoleh keterampilan dasar dalam aspek personal dan sosial. Dalam rangka mendukung kemandirian anak-anak terlantar, implementasi metode transprogramming menjadi solusi yang efektif. Metode ini dapat disiasati dengan merancang rumah singgah melalui program pemulihan, pelatihan, dan ekspresif. Dengan demikian, tercipta lingkungan baru yang mendukung proses perkembangan mereka. Pendekatan desain yang berorientasi pada komunitas dengan pendekatan spasial yang ekspresif juga perlu diterapkan. Dalam merancang rumah singgah untuk anak-anak terlantar, pendekatan desain yang berorientasi pada komunitas perlu diterapkan. Rumah singgah tersebut harus dirancang sebagai lingkungan yang inklusif dan ramah anak. Ruang-ruang dalam rumah singgah dapat dirancang agar mendukung interaksi sosial dan kolaborasi antara anak-anak. Selain itu, penggunaan elemen-elemen desain yang ekspresif, seperti warna-warna cerah dan mural, dapat menciptakan suasana yang menyenangkan dan mendorong kreativitas anak-anak.

Abstract:
That the legal protection for the handling of people with neglected mental disorders is not yet maximized to get a sense of security to be returned to the family and community environment after receiving health rehabilitation treatment at the Shelter and being declared cured or healthy to carry out their social functions, which they should get in order to achieve optimal mental health. The research carried out in this thesis research is normative legal research, where research examines from the point of view of legal science in depth the established norms which are then supported by additional data in the field. Legal protection for people with mental disorders who are abandoned in halfway houses is essentially everyone has the right to get legal protection. This is stated in Article 28 D paragraph (1) of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia which states that everyone has the right to recognition, guarantee, protection and fair legal certainty and equal treatment before the law. Actions in handling people with neglected mental disorders that are carried out in handling people with abandoned souls carried out by the Social Service are sent to the social rehabilitation center. For Satpol PP, the action is to bring order to the streets and say that people with mental disorders are displaced by the Social Service program. This means that there is no unified action between institutions in handling people with neglected mental disorders.

Abstract:
Purpose – This paper seeks to explore deeper into this subject in search of a new manner that can better aid ex-offenders to reintegrate back into society. The purpose of this paper is to ascertain the factors that influence the reintegration process of ex-offenders in the hope of further reducing reoffending and re-incarceration of offenders. This would eventually translate into a possible reduction in the resultant cost impact to the economy. Design/methodology/approach – The study is primarily descriptive, it was hoped to find out the philosophical bases of what were was “effective” (e.g. in terms of helping ex-offenders find jobs, the support they received, etc.) in reducing recidivism. The study adopted a qualitative research framework where attention was devoted to understanding the experiences of 12 formerly incarcerated males, all whom have been out of prison for at least five years or longer. Those individuals participating in the study have been incarcerated in the prison of Singapore more than once and are no longer on parole. Findings – The study indicated seven different factors that influence the success of reintegration. When these seven factors are put together, they increase the probability of success in their reintegration process. Hence, the success of re-entry of offenders after their release from prison is not merely dependent on one or two factors. Therefore, to maximise the rate of success for reintegration of offenders upon their release, a combination of the seven factors reported are essential for the reintegration process. Research limitations/implications – A limitation to this research was that both the halfway houses involved in the research process are faith based. Thus, the faith element was emphasised in the interviewing process. Currently in Singapore, there are no halfway houses that operate on a non-faith-based basis. It would be interesting to be able to interview and understand the perspective of individuals who have benefited from a non-faith-based programme and are successful in their reintegration back into the community. Practical implications – From the themes emerged from the study, critical factors for reintegration of offenders were identified. When resources are invested to strengthen the factors from the study while working with offenders through their transition from incare to aftercare, it would ultimately decrease the rate of recidivism and reoffending. Social implications – Desiring to live a life without crime is often not an easy option for most incarcerated persons after their release as there are several challenges they often face when they are in the community. Some also found themselves unable to adapt to the mainstream culture when released. Problems they faced include difficulty in finding employment, the intricacy of reconnecting back with their families, finding accommodation, etc. Besides these challenges, they have to live with experiences when they were in prison, and for some, the time in prison resulted in them experiencing symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (Goff et al., 2007). These issues coupled with guilt and shame often resulted in them going back into crime and sometimes falling into abusing substance. When this happens, the cycle of crime and imprisonment perpetuates and the desire to reduce recidivism will not be achieved and both the individuals and the community they are in will be adversely impacted. Originality/value – In Singapore, the Government has always been proactive in reducing recidivism. Various initiatives to introduce new programmes and alternative sentencing options started to assist in rehabilitation and reintegration of offenders. From the interviews of the 12 individuals who had successfully reintegrated back into the community, several themes emerged and factors that influenced reintegration are identified.

Abstract:
At the end of his career, Carlo Morselli started to be interested in how the structure of social relations could influence offenders’ prospects for reintegration and desistance. This article analyzes the data from his research project on that topic. The impacts of offenders’ relationships have traditionally been discussed from a dichotomous, risk-centered perspective opposing antisocial and prosocial peers. Social network studies allow a step back and a global view of the contexts and processes in which relationships shape trajectories. This article focuses on the ego networks of offenders as they reintegrate with society and sheds light on triadic patterns associated with increased optimism toward desistance. Interviews were conducted with residents of halfway houses (48 men and 24 women), with offenders followed by a community agency (25 men), and with incarcerated youth offenders (24 male teenagers). Structured interviews addressed multiple aspects of the lives of the offenders, including their social relations, prosocial and antisocial. A mixed-method approach was used to understand the influence of social relations in the perception of desistance potential success. First, logistic regressions were used to assess the effect of individual’s and egocentric networks’ characteristics on optimism toward desistance. Second, case studies of ego network sociograms illustrate the results and suggest hypotheses about processes that may explain them. Results show that optimism is higher when prosocial personal networks are denser, and is lower when antisocial networks are open, and as antisocial peers are connected to prosocial ties. The implications of these patterns for offenders’ desistance and network-based interventions are discussed.

Abstract:
SummaryThe authors examine the situation of rehabilitation of schizophrenic patients in France. After describing the methodology of their survey, the results are given. The housing facilities include halfway houses, “therapeutic” flats. The rehabilitation facilities include outpatient clinics with vocational units and rehabilitation centres such as vocational centres and sheltered workshops. In addition, a few centres provide placement and follow-up in the workplace. This type of centre is a recent innovation which helps stabilized schizophrenic patients find a regular job. The Fondation Santé des Étudiants de France (the health foundation of French students) deserves particular mention because it provides rehabilitation to high school and university students. In the discussion, the authors emphasize the insufficient number of such facilities, due to French psychiatrists only quite recently becoming aware of the importance of rehabilitation, which in turn, leads to insufficient funding of public mental health. As a result, most of the rehabilitation facilities were created and are now managed by private associations such as Les Croix Marines, UNAFAM, MGEN, Fondation Santé des Étudiants, Route Nouvelle Alsace, CAPPA Clermont-Ferrand, etc. In addition, their administrative tutelage is so complex that very few new facilities are developed. In view of their experience, the authors suggest that a large number of vocational centres should be built since they provide an essential service. Thus schizophrenic patients could enjoy a decent life in our society and not become one of the already many homeless. The European Union and the Council of Europe ought to consider the increase of such centres as a significiant aspect of their mental health policy.

Abstract:
Drawing on interviews with halfway house staff, this article provides insight into how these workers conceive of their work and occupational identities within the specific context of the halfway house. Specifically, I examine how halfway house workers seek to differentiate their work and approach to governing former prisoners from that of parole officers. I demonstrate how halfway house workers in this study capitalized on their intermediary position as quasi-state agents, using meso-level complications and struggle to carve out a space in which they felt empowered to carry out multiple, and sometimes conflicting, agendas in their everyday work with halfway house residents.

SummaryThe authors investigated the post-halfway house outcome of a sample of 41 former residents of the halfway house of the Department of Psychiatry, Athens University. Two criteria were used: hospital recidivism and global ratings of outcome (which was assessed on the basis of three parameters: rehospitalization, employment and independent living). Mean duration from the time of departure was 32 months (range: 8–52 months). Within this period good outcome and non-recidivism were related with compliance to pharmacotherapy. Most recidivists also had a shorter stay in the halfway house and cases with successful outcome tended to be evaluated higher on the “Behaviour in Halfway House Scale” at the end of the residency.
