Addiction and Crime: Understanding the Link and Finding Solutions

We need to look at what are the rewards they're getting and how can we replace those to reduce recidivism, reducing recidivism and or relapse- because I mean really recidivism is relapsed into criminal behavior.
Why do some people keep finding themselves on the wrong side of the law? In this episode of the 'Counselor Toolbox Podcast', Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes tackles this perplexing question by exploring the intricate relationship between addiction and criminal behavior. Dr. Snipes digs into why these two issues often go hand-in-hand, shedding light on the benefits and drawbacks of each.
She also offers a comprehensive look at what an effective re-integration model should include, emphasizing the importance of building pro-social support networks and developing problem-solving skills to break the cycle of relapse and recidivism. One fascinating concept discussed is reintegrative shaming, which could play a role in reducing criminal activities.
This episode is packed with practical tools for counselors and those directly affected by these challenges, making it a must-listen for anyone looking to understand and address the complex ties between addiction and crime.
