- Description
- The author focuses on the the Griffins Society, a voluntary organisation working for the care and resettlement of female offenders in prison and in the community. Drawing on archival, interview and observational sources, she describes a model of care provision by volunteer, upper middle-class women that has since been overtaken by the professionalisation of the voluntary sector. Rumgay describes the pathways of women into, and out of, serious crime: explores the dynamics of rehabilitative practice in the setting of residential care: and analyses the qualities of successful rehabilitative practice.
