Risk-Need-Responsivity Model

The Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR) Model is a framework used in criminal justice to assess and manage offenders. It focuses on three key principles: 1. **Risk**: Emphasizing that interventions should match the offender's level of risk to reoffend, with higher-risk individuals receiving more intensive support. 2. **Need**: Identifying and targeting the specific factors that contribute to criminal behavior, such as substance abuse or lack of education. 3. **Responsivity**: Tailoring interventions to suit the individual’s learning styles and preferences to enhance effectiveness. Overall, the RNR Model aims to reduce recidivism by addressing the specific needs of offenders in a responsive manner.
