In this program, criminologist Joseph D. Lohman explains that a major portion of the crime problem is a result of what society does about initial and relatively less serious crime. An interviewed inmate tells that he was less damaged by his prior criminal experience than by his prison experiences.

They emphasize that a prison must make offenders self-reliant, rather than dependent, and indicate methods by which this can be accomplished.
