What will be an ideal response?
The Good Lives Model (GLM) was developed by Ward (2002) and is a humanistic approach that stresses the importance of constructing a balanced prosocial, personal identity in offenders. They do this through the utilization and development of internal capabilities, and external conditions, to help an offender achieve his needs in an adaptive prosocial way. The GLM model aims at reducing recidivism risk by equipping them with the skills and resources to lead a different, more prosocial life.
