Treatments for Recidivism Risk Among Justice-Involved Veterans

Recidivism among U.S. military veterans with criminal justice system involvement is of national concern. This article reviews evidence-based and promising treatments to reduce recidivism risk, and suggests treatment adaptations and research to ensure that treatments are effective for veterans. Interventions focus on the Risk-Need-Responsivity model, stating that treatments should target adults at high risk of recidivism, and account for individual characteristics. Promising are cognitive-behavioral treatments to change antisocial thinking, such as Moral Reconation Therapy, Reasoning and Rehabilitation, and Thinking For a Change. Treatments need evaluation within justice-involved veteran samples, and may require adaptation due to veterans' military training and experience, mental health concerns, and other characteristics. We present the Department of Veterans Affairs' efforts to reduce recidivism risk among the heterogeneous population of justice-involved veterans.
