Description

Explore a unique historical study of female offender rehabilitation in Ladies of Lost Causes. Written by Judith Rumgay, this book examines the development of a residential program managed by the Griffins Society. It provides a detailed look at how women philanthropists and practitioners contributed to the field of offender rehabilitation through specialized care models. By using archival research, interviews, and observational data, the text analyzes a specific model of care provided by volunteer, upper-middle-class women. This study tracks how these original methods were eventually changed by the professionalization of the voluntary sector. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of social work, sociology, and the evolution of women's roles in the justice system.
