The Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) was designed to address sexual violence in prison. While previous has focused on sexual violence occurring in correctional facilities, there has been a dearth of studies that document the expertise, experience, or reflections of program following the cimplementation of PREA- within a correctional system. The current study utilizes a "lessons learned" approach to discuss the impact of the PREA Demonstration Project on a state prison system that includes 19 correctional institutions. Results indicate the benefits of merging the philosophical orientation of key stakeholders, establishing benchmarks, and the need for partnerships with prosecutors. A comparison of the perceptions of correctional administrators, inmates, and front-line correctional officers regarding PREA is included. Also featured are the "lessons learned" from the implementation of PREA into four prison sites, along with the concept of building trust and the impact of lockdowns due to staff shortages.
《监狱强奸消除法》(PREA)旨在解决监狱中的性暴力问题。虽然之前的研究主要集中在惩教设施中发生的性暴力事件上,但很少有研究记录在 PREA 实施后,惩教系统中项目的专业知识、经验或反思。本研究采用“经验教训”方法,讨论 PREA 示范项目对一个州立监狱系统的影响,该系统包括 19 个惩教机构。结果表明,将主要利益相关者的哲学方向、基准的建立以及与检察官合作的必要性结合起来是有益的。还比较了惩教管理人员、囚犯和一线惩教官员对 PREA 的看法。此外,还介绍了将 PREA 纳入四个监狱场所的实施经验教训,以及建立信任的概念和由于人员短缺导致的封锁的影响。
