ASSIGNMENT 2

880786

Correctional services and institutions, like prisons, contribute in a unique way to
protect the community, to maintain law and order and prevent crime.
Sometimes prisons carry the additional burden of overcrowding

Against this background, write a concise essay of roughly four (4) pages, making
use of study material and additional online resources, in which you describe the
effects of overcrowded prisons on the achievement of the objectives of the
Department of Correctional Services.



Overcrowding in prisons is a widespread issue that poses significant challenges
to the achievement of the objectives of the Department of Correctional
Services. This essay will delve into the effects of overcrowding on the goals of
protecting the community, maintaining law and order, and preventing crime. It
will draw upon relevant study material and additional online resources to
support the arguments presented.



The primary objective of correctional services is to protect the community from
dangerous individuals and ensure public safety. However, overcrowded prisons
hinder the department's ability to fulfill this mandate effectively. When prisons
are packed beyond their intended capacities, it becomes difficult to adequately
monitor inmates and maintain control over the facility. Limited resources,
including staff and infrastructure, are stretched too thin, compromising security
and leading to increased incidents of violence and escapes (Scott & Codd, 2019).
As a result, the community is put at greater risk as dangerous individuals evade
proper supervision.
