The Quinn Prison will serve as a minimum security State institution housing lower level felony offenders. This choice may seem odd, considering that it can be argued that more serious offenders are likely in need of more need of programs than the less serious offenders. However, the goal of this jail is to rehabilitate and ease reintegration into society. By choosing the lower level offenders I am effectively targeting a group of people that can be malleable to change, and will be back on the streets quicker than more serious offenders. Which in the end will help more quickly justify the prison's existence by being able to show if the use of these programs helped end the cycle of recidivation among its population.…
The national Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP) brings a new focus to international security cooperation and provides a risk- based framework for collaborative engagement with international partners and for measuring the effectiveness of international critical infrastructure and key resources protection activities. The NIPP provides the mechanisms, processes, key initiatives, and milestones necessary to enable the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of State, the Sector- Specific Agencies (SSAs), and other security partners to address international implications and requirements related to CI/KR protection. The NIPP and associated Sector-Specific Plans (SSPs) recognize that protection measures do not stop at a facility’s fence line or national borders.…

In order to measure recidivism, Fabelo stresses to have a full understanding of recidivism, understand how it is measured, and determine the implications of adopting recidivism rates as measures of performance (Maxfield, 2015, pp. 83-84).
