Strategies for Reducing Recidivism and victimization

The more times an individual has been victimized, the more likely that person is to be subject to future victimization. Also, the more times an offender engages in criminal behavior, the more likely they are to continue that conduct. This cycle of violence, for both the offenders and victims, can be addressed and broken when both individual-level variables and non-changeable variables are addressed. As a helping professional, being aware of interventions and strategies for addressing these variables, and being aware of the odds of their success, is crucial to helping that individual stop the cycle of violence. By Day 3 Post a brief description of a victim or offender population relevant to your current or future profession. Then, identify and describe one strategy for reducing an individual’s recidivism and one strategy for reducing revictimization risk that you might use with the given population. For this one, I choose the victim. For this paper please talk about sex abuse amongst children. I currently work with some of these victims in foster care. Strategies are awareness and signs to help children in the future avoid being sexually abused. Please proofread and were all questions.
