Oak Park Heights Correctional Facility  

Définition(s)

  • Oak Park Heights, in Minnesota, is one of the first “New Generation” prisons constructed after the demise of the medical model in penology, which saw the role of imprisonment as the diagnosis, treatment, and cure of criminal behavior. It represents one of three fundamental changes in Minnesota penal policy in the 1970s and early 1980s: the introduction of a new sentencing system, an alternative to incarceration initiative, and the decision to build a new high-security prison.
