Have you ever thought about how, if your offenders couldn’t drink alcohol, all the positive ways that it would impact their lives, your court, the community – and even your own life?
One of the fundamental benefits of SCRAM is that it can effectively separate alcohol from the offender by continuously monitoring them for alcohol consumption. SCRAM addresses the root cause of the offender’s addiction, rather than just treating the symptoms. If your offenders can remain sober for an extended period of time, here are some of the significant results you’re likely to see:
For the offender:
- Greater accountability for their actions
- Better responses to treatment
- Opportunity to finally “get out” of the system and have a fresh start
- Ability to work and maintain family obligations
For your court:
- Reduced recidivism
- Ability to better assess offenders’ addiction levels
- Ability to better tailor treatment programs to the individual
- Better collection rates, as offenders can maintain jobs and pay their fees/fines
For your community:
- Safer roads
- Reduced jail overcrowding through remote – yet intensive – monitoring of offenders who are not a threat to public safety
- Offenders can hold jobs and contribute positively to the community while being monitored
For you:
- More manageable caseloads
- Ability to focus your attention only on those who need it the most
- Helps make your job easier
