Discuss what a Relapse Prevention program consists of. What are the components of the program? Does it work?
What will be an ideal response?

RP focuses on helping the offender analyze the chain of events preceding prior offenses in order to identify what led to the offending. It also incorporates coping skills for high-risk situations. Even though it is popular, it has been criticized for lacking evidence of efficacy, and being a negative approach to treating people.
