FollO\'/ing the enactmemt of the 1972 Correctional Reform Act th~ HasGo.chusett13 DelJartment of Corrcc'cion ~ontracted I'-'!asHachu:3etts Ha.lf' . ..ray Houses, Inc. (NIlliI), a privat~ organ-ization, to proo,lid0 30 b:::c1::: ~lhich 'llould ser·,,¥~ approxim·:ltely 120 men during a 12 mon-t:n p0riod. ]J.t the tim'~ I'illEI consis­ted of nrooke House and Temporary Honoing. In June of 1973 Coolidge House, a third E"fIr1l faciliJcy was o'p~ncd. r·lEar ex­panded itEJ scrvice~ t.o the Departr.te?lt of Correction in 1974· by providing pre-releaBe services to reoide:nt:::; from state insti tu·tions.

This report itl the f3("Jcona §tage: of a three part over­all evaluation of reoidents admitted to 1~:HI on a pre-re­leaee basi~ during 1974'e Included in thil:l r('}port il3 an analysis of the pr~~re10~Be sample in terms of the basic statistical difference between progr~m comple'cers and pro­gram non-completers. .

fu"lalysis of thi:l nature is useful for the follo,\1ing reasons: First, program administrators would have some sort of guide to determine whether or not a particular in­dividual has a high, lew or rnodermte fluccess/failure pz:oob­ability for completing their program, thus influencing tl:.e selection 'proc~rm, and secmldly high return rislcs could be assigrlell r.1ore intensi~'0 nup!?~l-viGion and programming at the reception and diagnostic Gtag~ of the programs. 1

During 1974 th~re ",ere a total of 85 residents admit­ted to IvIassachuse·tts Half'.:fay Heuse~:;, Inc. (r-iliEl) on a pre­releas~ basis. For comparative purposcf3, the to'cal sample "'l~S divided into t .... l0 groups ~ program compleb;rc and pro­gram non-completers. A program corr:pletion \1m3 defined as any rf~sident who successfully complEted the program and '-laS

released from the pre-rele;:is~ centers to the community either by permit of the parole board or a certificate of discharge. A program nOl1-ccmpletion '\"las defined as any res­idcnt who did not complete his stay at ~kIT~I but was instead returned to his sending institution.

Of the 85 individuals who participat(;Jd in the M::-lr-II pre-r~lease programs, 57 (67%) successfully completed these programs. The remaining 28 residcntG (33%) ,\1i0re r~turned to their sending in:::ltit.utiol1s as program non-cotnpleters. Indi viduals became program uon-co,npleters for a variety of reasons. Some examplt9s were ~ violation of house or d~part­mental rules, inability to adjust, attempted or actual es­cape', a n~w arrest while: on furlough or ,,,ork release or any major disciplinary problem while at the facility.

Table I summarizes the specific reasons for return for the non-completion sub sample.

METHODOLOGY

Com~itment, background and criminal history variables were characterJ.zed according to a series of different splits for each completion sample. The split that yielde1 the highest chi sauare ";as chosen. Variables that yielde1 a sta­tistically significant relat~onship at the .05 probability level (x2=3.84, ldf) were selected as indicators of dif­ferences between the two sub samples.

FINDINGS

A comparison of these variables bet'l,oleen HHHI pro­gram completers and non-completers yielded five variables that produced statistically significant differences. In rank order of their significance the variables \'lere:

III. In terms of the variClble, Prev~ot1s1v Paroled as an Adult, s1.gnl.~iCantly more of the progra~ non-complet1on sample had .been prev10usly paroled as an adult. Or the non-complet:.ers :>0% had been paroled as an adu.Lt as com­pare::1 LO 23% OJ: L.he compLeterso

Iv. !-.n analysis of the variable, Marital Status, indicated that signific;:lntly more of the program non-ccmpleters tenjed to be single. Specifically, 71% of the non co:nplet,ion sam­ple ':lere single ".Ihereas 4.7% of the completion sample had never been married.

v. The last variable that produced a statistically signi­ficant difference beti'leen the t'l.rIO samples \'1BS, Total Nu;nber of Prior House of Correction Incarcerations. Analysis of the relationship deter:nine::i that 25% of the non-completers as compared to 9% of the completers had three or more prior House of Correction incarcerations.

As a profile of the t}-rpical NHHI pre-release program non-completer as compared to the completer, it was deter­mined that the non-completer \-las generally sl.ngle with a prior history of adult paroles and House of Cor.rection incar­cerations. In addition, the program non-completers tended to be incarcerated for longer periods of ti::ne pr1.0r to their entry into a pre-release program and '<lere generally at least 7 months beyond thc-\ir parole eligibility date at the tl.ITle of their release.

A sUffil1ary of these r~lationships is presented l.n Ap­pendix I. The remaining variables that d~d not produce signl.ficant resu.Lts are documented in Jl.ppendiJ-: II. Any variable that needs further explanantion is formerly de­f~ned in Appendix III.
