This course examines both the principle issues in providing human services within contemporary criminal justice as well as the extrapolation of such issues toward possible futures of human services within the criminal justice field. Students will focus upon relevant research in policing, courts, and corrections that reflect key elements of current conditions and what may be expected from human services and human service workers in the years to come. Students will apply critical review and engage in in-depth discussion of these concepts as a basis for comprehensive understanding at local, state, and national levels of human services in criminal justice administration.
