Paper Summary:

This paper critically reviews the above mentioned article which is a case study into the needs and experiences of female prisoners within the county system in the United States of America. It discusses how the paper claims that previously little has been done for the needs of women in jail and that in order to assist these women it is necessary to identify the main areas of concern and then develop programmes that aim to either relieve or solve these areas of neglect.

From the Paper:

"The researchers used a small sample group of 100 female jail detainees at the Prince George's County Correctional Center. All participants within the sample group were volunteers and were compensated for their time. The volunteers were not approached individually but rather group presentations were given at regular intervals to ensure that individuals were not coerced, had equal opportunity, honored anonymity and signed up voluntarily.
