Lesson Title: Parole ( a community based supervision)

Skill-building Activities
It’s time to check if you are already familiar with parole. Read carefully the questions and write your
answer in the space provided for.

1. Define the word parole in your own words.


For me, Permission for a prisoner to be released before their period in prison is finished, with the agreement that they will behave
well: He's been released on parole. She hopes to be eligible for parole in three years.

2. Enumerate the advantages of parole and briefly explain each.


Rehabilitation and Reintegration: Parole allows offenders to gradually reintegrate into society under supervision, which can facilitate their rehabilitation.
By providing access to support services such as job training, counseling, and education, parole helps individuals develop the skills necessary to become
law-abiding citizens.

Reduced Prison Overcrowding: Parole helps alleviate prison overcrowding by allowing eligible individuals to serve the remainder of their sentences in
the community under supervision. This frees up space in correctional facilities and reduces the strain on resources.

Cost Savings: Parole can be more cost-effective than incarceration, as it reduces the financial burden associated with housing, feeding, and providing
medical care for inmates in prison. Community-based supervision and support services are often less expensive than incarceration.

Incentive for Rehabilitation: The possibility of parole serves as an incentive for inmates to participate in rehabilitative programs and demonstrate good
behavior while incarcerated. Knowing that they may be eligible for early release encourages individuals to engage in activities aimed at personal growth
and behavior change.

Humanitarian Considerations: Parole recognizes that individuals can change and rehabilitate themselves over time. It offers a second chance to those
who have demonstrated remorse, taken responsibility for their actions, and shown a commitment to positive change.

Community Safety: Parole supervision allows authorities to monitor and support individuals as they transition back into society, reducing the risk of
recidivism. By providing access to treatment programs and support services, parole can help address underlying issues that may contribute to criminal
behavior, thereby enhancing public safety.

Fairness and Flexibility: Parole offers a degree of flexibility in sentencing, allowing for adjustments based on an individual's behavior, progress, and
circumstances. This flexibility allows authorities to tailor supervision and support to meet the specific needs of each parolee, promoting fairness in the
criminal justice system.

For this activity enumerate the persons disqualified for parole.


Serious Offenses: Individuals convicted of particularly severe or violent crimes, such as murder, rape, or certain forms of assault,
may be disqualified from parole consideration due to the gravity of their offenses.

Repeat Offenders: In some jurisdictions, individuals with a history of repeat offenses or multiple convictions may be deemed ineligible for
parole due to concerns about their likelihood of reoffending.

Sentence Length: In cases where an individual is sentenced to a mandatory minimum term or a sentence without the possibility of parole, they
would be automatically disqualified from parole consideration.

Non-Eligible Offenses: Some jurisdictions have laws that specifically prohibit parole for certain types of offenses, such as drug trafficking or
terrorism-related crimes.

Failure to Meet Requirements: Individuals who fail to meet the requirements or conditions set forth by the parole board during their
incarceration, such as completing rehabilitative programs or demonstrating good behavior, may be disqualified from parole consideration.

Risk Assessment: Parole boards may conduct risk assessments to evaluate an individual's likelihood of reoffending or posing a danger to the
community. If an individual is deemed to present a high risk, they may be disqualified from parole.

Public Safety Concerns: Parole may be denied or revoked if there are concerns about the individual's potential threat to public safety or if
releasing them into the community is deemed too risky.
