| Summary, etc | "Taking into account the special needs of girls and women within a system designed by men for male offenders, Working with Female Offenders offers counselors, correctional officers, lawyers, probation officers - in short, anyone who works in some capacity with female offenders - an evidence-based, gentler approach for working effectively and successfully with girls and women in trouble with the law."
