Outline of Final Research Achievements

In our research, we were going to plan and evaluate the peer support program which can facilitate the offenders’ correction and establishment in their communities with their mental retardation.　However, we have spent so many months to make an agreement for cooperation of our research between the prison and us. So we did no more than start collect data about clowning workshops in the prison, contact with parole offices in Japan, and connect with parole offices in Canada to collect the data for case studies.
