PACEs in the Criminal Justice System

Discussion and sharing of resources in working with clients involved in the criminal justice system and how screening for and treating ACEs will lead to successful re-entry of prisoners into the community and reduced recidivism for former offenders.

Reply to "Use of ACE test in County Jails"

I'm also interested in the topic and look forward to replies.  Extending this inquiry a bit, I am also interested as to whether effective treatment approaches have been developed using a wellness model for incarcerated clients and released clients.  I run a domestic violence offender's program - the standard 26-week Duluth (Power and Control) model.  I've complemented the model with a wellness curriculum teaching subjects such as mindfulness practice, neuroplasticity and processing (talking in the language of the heart).  My experience over 15 years of using the complementary model is that it is effective, however I lack statistics and sound research.  So I echo Dave's question - does anybody have stats on recidivism rate or other pertinent variables associated with ACES and other positive health-related outcomes?
