Good Lives Model

The Good Lives Model (GLM) is a approach in criminal rehabilitation that focuses on helping individuals achieve a fulfilling and meaningful life. Instead of only reducing the risk of reoffending, it aims to support personal well-being by identifying each person's strengths, passions, and goals. By promoting positive life goals and teaching skills to attain them, GLM encourages pro-social behaviors and personal growth. This approach recognizes that addressing underlying needs and aspirations can reduce the likelihood of reoffending, making rehabilitation more effective and humane.
