Data show that women offenders, as a group, show considerable potential for successful reintegration at admission. Approximately half of the female offenders in the institutional population were objectively classified as "high" reintegration potential at admission. Consistent with efforts directed toward the realization of the Correctional Service's mission, a concerted effort is required to ensure that correctional programs and interventions are linked to estimates of reintegration potential. To accomplish this task, evaluations of core programs for women offenders must be ongoing and reflect impacts on achieving safe reintegration. Also, the practice of accrediting correctional programs for women offenders must ensure that programs meet high standards of integrity, in terms of both content and delivery. Finally, a mechanism is required to incorporate treatment information on women offenders into decisions regarding future reintegration potential. 2 figures and 6 footnotes
