Abstract

In the era of re-entry, a great deal of attention has been paid to the 'risk-need-responsivity' model. Most attention to the utilization of services designed to meet need has focused on post-release behaviors. However, little attention has been paid to the pre-incarceration utilization of services that might influence receptivity to post-release utilization. Using constructs borrowed from health services utilization, the current paper examines the associations among CJ-involvement, social and health services utilization, and health status in a cohort of CJ-involved men living in the community. Results from the current cohort, combined with those of previous research, suggest that follow-through on services by released individuals' remains problematic. Suggestions for future research and questions about the role of criminal justice agencies in improving follow-through are raised. © 2013 Taylor & Francis.
