Abstract:
This article uses the state of Wisconsin as a case study to explore whether alternative treatment programs could and should be used as alternatives to incarceration. Further, the article asks whether certain punishments attached to certain non-violent offenses (e.g., revoking a driver’s license due to a drug charge) are counterproductive.Keywords: best practices
