description SUMMARY This paper traces the history, and assesses the impact, of an innovatory project in which current and ex-offenders were provided with the opportunity to gain practical social work experience and training for long-term rehabilitative purposes. Based on earlier American schemes in which members of disadvantaged or discriminated against groups received training and support for non-professional careers in human services agencies, the project can claim a measure of success. But the evidence also suggests that a demonstrated potential for individual change is not always matched by agency interests and ideologies. The findings are considered in relation to the philosophy and provisions associated with the 1991 Criminal Justice Act.
