modern re -socialization in the correctional facility Hinzistobel

In the correctional facility (JVA) Hinzistobel, led by Ms. Ellen Albeck, extensive construction measures are currently taking place. This modernization aims to develop the detention center into one of the most progressive facilities in Baden-Württemberg. Particularly noteworthy is the focus on re -socializing young criminals. Minister of Social Affairs, Health and Integration, Manne Lucha, visited the JVA as part of his summer tour and found out about the planned changes.

growth and further training for young people inmates

The JVA will in future have around 700 detention places, which means an expansion of capacities. Rafael driver, who works as a building worker, presented the plans for the new facilities. A central aspect of the expansion are the additional places for delinquent young people who are not only given safe accommodation, but also access to numerous school and professional educational offers.

The importance of education and therapy

Minister Lucha emphasized the challenge with which young people come to the prison. They often have complex problems that led to their crimes. "It is essential not only to show these young people the legal consequences of their actions, but also to open up paths from their individual crisis," he said. To achieve this, a wide range of school and training programs as well as therapeutic offers is provided. This is intended to enable the inmates to understand and work the causes of their actions.

sustainability as a guiding principle

Another relevant point, the driver was cut during the visit, was the concept of sustainability that is integrated into the construction work. The JVA is not only safe, but also ecologically sustainable through the use of modern technologies and energy -efficient construction methods. The use of renewable energies is also one of the goals of the new facilities.

a new standard in the prison

"With the creation of this modern detention center, we set new standards in the prison in Baden-Württemberg. We combine security and re-socialization," summarized Minister Lucha. This project not only strengthens the structural capacity of the institution, but also shows a clear direction towards a humanitarian and rehabilitative approach in dealing with young criminals.

Developments in the JVA Hinzistobel are an important sign of a progressive judicial policy that aims at reintegration. Such initiatives not only play an important role during detention, they also contribute to the reduction of the relapse rates.
