Evaluation of the Scottish Prison Service Transitional Care Initiative: Interim Findings - Staff Views of Transitional Care

This is the first in a series of short reports on the findings from an evaluation of the Scottish Prison Service Transitional Care arrangements. This report presents the results of interviews with staff involved in Transitional Care, and provides information about their reviews of the assessment and referral process in particular. The next report — based on a survey of, and in-depth interviews with, ex-prisoners offered Transitional Care — will be available in June 2004. A final report of the evaluation will be published in August 2005.
